Abstract :
One of the important current problems is imaging and detection of objects hidden by obscuring non-penetrating obstacles. There have been extensive research on “through wall imaging”, but our interest is focused on imaging objects which are obscured by non-penetrating obstacles such as “hard wall”. The hard wall imaging may have potential applications in many problems of practical interest such as objects behind hard walls near terrain.
