Through-the-wall radar imaging attempts to image complex scenes within enclosed structures. While most of the high-resolution imaging techniques assume point targets, indoor imaging requires dealing with single or multiple walls which are extended targets in nature and violate the point-target assumption. In order to provide high quality imaging, we need to consider point targets and extended targets...
The main idea that motivates this study is to improve the resolution of a radar mounted on an airplane, looking in the forward direction: this can be obtained by forming a synthetic array along the airplane line of flight. We term this new concept as ldquoForward-Looking Synthetic Aperture Radarrdquo (FLoSAR). We present a feasibility study that analyses the system geometry, evaluates the achievable...
Cross-range resolution in spotlight synthetic aperture radar (SAR) is primarily a function of the angular extent (Deltathetas) over which data is collected. In [1], the authors proposed a method for improving cross-range resolution for a given Deltathetas by use of frequency diverse array (FDA) techniques. The goal was to exploit an apparent increase in Deltathetas to improve cross-range resolution...
This paper considers the problem of high-resolution imaging of the environment formalized in terms of a nonlinear ill-posed inverse problem of nonparametric estimation of the power spatial spectrum pattern (SSP) of the wavefield scattered from an extended remotely sensed scene (referred to as the scene image) via processing the discrete measurements of a finite number of independent realizations of...
An 8-channel ground-based radar has been developed and used to image the ice-bed interface under the icesheet near Summit Camp, Greenland. This radar, which chirps from 120 to 300 MHz, was developed to demonstrate the feasibility of using radar to characterize the basal conditions (topography, roughness, and presence of liquid water) thus enabling improved modeling of ice-sheet dynamics. Using a basal...
