Abstract:
Through-wall (TW) imaging is of great interest for both military and civilian applications. At sufficiently low radar frequencies, Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) provides a TW sensing solution, however making sense of cluttered and overlaid signatures can prove difficult. This work investigates the suitability of three-dimensional dual-polarimetric multistatic TW-SAR, for the determination of building architectures and the detection of targets within buildings. These results are relevant to radar sensing Unmanned Air Systems under current development.
