Abstract :
A simulation of a multistatic radar using the finite-difference time-domain method is performed to identify the presence of an intruder inside a residence. The radar operates with ultra-wideband pulses to obtain high resolution. One transmitter and three receivers, positioned outside the residence, are used to estimate the location of an intruder inside the residence without ambiguity.
