Abstract :
The achievable illumination quality in microwave and millimeter-wave images using multistatic planar arrays is discussed. The geometrical relations between the array effective aperture and the illumination boundaries caused by the specular reflections are introduced. Afterwards, the variations in the processing gain due to diffuse and specular reflections are analyzed and verified experimentally.
