Abstract

This In this paper, we describe the image processing techniques needed to produce sharp images using microwave technology. A scanning system produces a set of images representing the return of an object at several angles. By treating each point as a vector and calculating the autocorrelation function, we can produce relatively sharp images of the target. The technology can be used for detecting hidden targets.
