  • Abstract
    Through-wall radar imaging may be greatly enhanced by exploiting the multi-path propagation associated with walls, floors, ceilings and periodic structures. This paper describes electromagnetic models for such mechanisms, and presents imaging functions that incorporate these models. The resulting image provides super-resolution like quality.
