Abstract :
We present the development and preliminary results of an ultra-wideband Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave (FMCW) Through-The-Wall (TTW) radar prototype built at ONERA in Toulouse, France. The radar operates between 1 and 4 GHz. The radar has been successfully tested through a plasterboard wall and trials with a cinder block wall are ongoing.
