Abstract :
Resonance based radar target detection has been applied to ground penetrating radar (GPR) applications for the detection and recognition of landmines. Target detection is achieved by searching for certain target dependent complex natural resonances (CNRs), which could be considered as a feature set for identification. In this paper, detection of a hip prosthesis under human tissues using resonance based target detection technique is investigated
