Signal Processing Steps for Objects Imaging Through the Wall with UWB Radar

نویسنده

  • Michal AFTANAS
چکیده

UWB radar system facilitates us to estimate positions and shapes of the objects behind the wall. It has a great utilization especially for rescue and security applications. This paper briefly describes all signal processing steps that are required for Imaging of the objects scanned by ultra wideband radar device. It involves the description of the basic scanning method, data preprocessing and calibration, migration methods, wall parameters measurement techniques and compensation of the wall effect on wave that penetrate through the wall. The practical results from real measurements with M-sequence UWB radar device are shown. Keywords—UWB radar system, through the wall imaging, SAR scanning, signal processing.

Location Detection and Tracking of Moving Targets by a 2D IR-UWB Radar System

In indoor environments, the Global Positioning System (GPS) and long-range tracking radar systems are not optimal, because of signal propagation limitations in the indoor environment. In recent years, the use of ultra-wide band (UWB) technology has become a possible solution for object detection, localization and tracking in indoor environments, because of its high range resolution, compact siz...
