1. An ultra-wideband (UWB) dual burst transmitter, comprising:

  • a trigger pulse initiation circuit actuated by a single input trigger pulse;

    an initial trigger pulse generator connected to the trigger pulse initiation circuit to generate a first trigger pulse;

    a delayed trigger pulse generator connected to the trigger pulse initiation circuit to generate a second trigger pulse at a selected delay from the first trigger pulse;

    a bias driver connected to the initial and delayed trigger pulse generators; and

    a RF burst oscillator connected to the bias driver and actuated thereby in response to the first and second trigger pulses to generate a pair of RF bursts separated by the selected delay.
