Abstract :
A coherent system with two stepped frequency radar sensors separated by 1-2 m is presented for close range imaging. Resolution is achieved via range resolution from the two different sensor positions, exploiting both mono- and bistatic responses. First test had been made using vector measurement equipment for an antenna measurement range as radar simulator, and a mobile experimental system was built up and tested including stationary and mobile targets.
