Abstract

In this study, applications of millimeter wave ground based synthetic aperture radar (GB-SAR) experiments are studied. GB-SAR data collection setup is constructed and GB-SAR measurements of different objects are carried out in the semi-anechoic chamber room. Measurements from an aluminum target and metal pipe targets at the millimeter wave regions are collected by the newly constructed measurement setup. Also, real SAR measurement from metal targets is taken. Then, the millimeter wave GB-SAR images are reconstructed by using a matched filtering type algorithm and the performance of the setup is quantified from the resultant images by evaluating the accuracy and quality metrics.
