Abstract
A generalized pencil-of-function (GPOF) method is developed for extracting the poles of an electromagnetic system from its transient response. The GPOF method needs the solution of a generalized eigenvalue problem to find the poles. Subspace decomposition is also used to optimize the performance of the GPOF method. The GPOF method has advantages over the Prony method in both computation and noise sensitivity, and approaches the Cramer-Rao bound when the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is above threshold. An application of the GPOF method to a thin-wire target is presented.<>Keywords
