This talk will review the development of time domain Electromagnetics
by this writer and others over more than a 40 year period
and show how the work contributed to the growth of Ultra WideBand
(UWB) radar and communications. It will also review some of
the latest advancements made in the field of communications
by investigators making presentations in the UWB area at RAWCON
and attempt to put their work in perspective. Also some remaining
problem areas will be identified.
