Abstract :
In this work we present some of our recent work on using compressive sensing (CS) in radar imaging of targets behind multilayered walls using a combination of multi-input multi-output (MIMO) radar and compressive sensing (CS). To account for the wall effects, the layered media Green´s functions are used in forming the image. The sparseness of the target space is then exploited through the use of CS to achieve a less cluttered and high resolution image with far fewer antennas and frequency point measurements. Results are presented to show the effectiveness of the method.
