Terahertz Imaging, Millimeter-wave Radar
The millimeter wave (MMW) band of frequencies extends from 30 GHz to 300 GHz, with some fuzziness on both ends of this spectrum. The terahertz (THz) band extends from about 200 GHz to about 30 THz, despite the fact that the lower frequencies in this range are not strictly 10 Hz or higher. These bands are also variously called submillimeter, far-infrared, and near-millimeter. In recent years, th...
متن کاملRadar Image Preprocessing
Standard image processing techniques are not applicable to radar images because of the coherent nature of the sensor. Therefore there is a need to develop preprocessing techniques for radar images which will then allow these standard methods to be applied. A random field model for radar image data is developed. This model de~ cribes the image data as the result of a mult1plicative-convolved pr...
متن کاملFast, high-resolution terahertz radar imaging at 25 meters
We report improvements in the scanning speed and standoff range of an ultra-wide bandwidth terahertz (THz) imaging radar for person-borne concealed object detection. Fast beam scanning of the single-transceiver radar is accomplished by rapidly deflecting a flat, light-weight subreflector in a confocal Gregorian optical geometry. With RF back-end improvements also implemented, the radar imaging ...
متن کاملFirst Results from the South African Vhf Imaging Radar
Abst ract:-The South African Sythetic Aperture Radar System (SASAR) was conceived of as a fully polarimetric, multifrequency, airborne SAR. System design work was carried out at the Radar Remote Sensing Group of the Department of Electrical Engineering, University of Cape Town, starting in 1993. Construction of flight hardware was contracted out to Industry and on board integration was given to...
متن کاملTerahertz imaging: applications and perspectives.
Terahertz (THz) spectroscopy, and especially THz imaging, holds large potential in the field of nondestructive, contact-free testing. The ongoing advances in the development of THz systems, as well as the appearance of the first related commercial products, indicate that large-scale market introduction of THz systems is rapidly approaching. We review selected industrial applications for THz sys...
