Abstract :
This paper presents through the wall radar imaging technique based on the finite difference time domain method and the time reversal algorithm (FDTD-TR). Reflection imaging modalities for behind the wall objects were investigated. In this study, we implemented the FDTD-TR algorithm in three dimensions using convolutional perfectly matching layers (CPML) as boundaries to truncate the simulation domain.
