Abstract

In this paper, mm-wave band scattering measurements are performed and imaging reconstructions obtained using a 2-D Scatterer Mapping Technique based on a Multi-Frequency Bi-Focusing operator (MF-BF). The measured data matrix is also processed to obtain its eigenvalues and eigenvectors. A relation between the eigenvalues and the number of scatterers and the eigenvectors and the scatterers spatial localization is obtained.
