Abstract :
A mm wave image simulator is developed using a commercial ray-tracing package that is augmented with a custom Matlab package to determine expected image quality of both passive and active millimeter-wave imaging systems. To build accurate scene information, a library of material properties was assembled using data from literature and internal measurements.
