Target imaging with bistatic doppler radar tomography

Abstract

Radar Tomography is a signal processing technique used to obtain a two-dimensional image of an object using a set of one-dimensional projections which in this case take the form of cross range profiles, and is well suited for narrowband radar systems. The effects of a bistatic configuration are investigated, and signal processing requirement for optimal imaging resolution is discussed, with real radar measurements of an SUV and trailer rotating on a turntable.
