  • Abstract
    The motivation for developing a multi-target detecting system is the significant practicability of an undetermined number of target detections. We had developed an imaging system to detect early breast cancer. In that system, we separated the transmission antenna and the receiving antenna to decrease the rigorous requests for antenna design. And it works well. In this paper, we attempt to do multi-target detection with that system. And we analyze in detail why the imaging result is caused. Then, we better our system to detect the same model. Simulation results prove the new system is surely better than the old one.
