Abstract
A small frequency-agile radar has been developed and configured into different systems for performing imaging of static and dynamic targets through common building materials. Radar operating parameters are defined through software control, allowing radar system operations to be tailored to operational needs. Field testing has shown the radar´s ability to detect stationary individuals concealed behind concrete walls at significant ranges.
