- The records of the waveforms are then transmitted to a central server that time-reverses them and lets the time-reversed versions back-propagate into the location domain by numerical simulation.2017, Farhad Rachidi, Marcos Rubinstein, Mario Paolone (editors), Electromagnetic Time Reversal - Application to EMC and Power Systems:
