Abstract :
In this study, principal component analysis (PCA), singular value decomposition (SVD) and independent component analysis (ICA), which are statistical signal processing methods for clutter reduction, are explained in ultra wideband (UWB) radars. In addition, how to use these methods in through wall imaging (TWI) and time/performance relationship on ARM Cortex A-8 processors which have floating-point mathematical operation support is examined by using OpenCV library. In the conclusion part, the results obtained from a metal behind a wall was made of ytong bricks is discussed.
