Development of Ultrawide Band Reflector Antennas and Adaptive SAR Algorithms for Near Zone Surveillance Radar

Abstract

In this work, novel UWB parabolic reflector structures are designed and some adaptive signal processing and synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imaging techniques are presented for ultra-wide band (UWB) ground penetrating radar and near zone surveillance radar systems. Raw and processed data collected by experimental studies of our scenarios are demonstrated in target detection images.
