Abstract :
This paper is focused on utilizing short-range wideband FMCW radar measurements to evaluate multilayered dielectric structures. The performance of the MUSIC algorithm in resolving closely-spaced spectral lines corresponding to adjacent boundaries within such structures is investigated experimentally.
