Abstract :
This paper presents a simple and efficient method of millimeter-wave image formation using back-projection algorithm. A commercial Vector Network Analyzer transmits and receives a wideband signal centered at 35GHz. The millimeter-wave signal illuminates and reflects off the surface of the target. A widely employed algorithm in computed tomography is used to perform imaging processing, specifically, the back-projection algorithm.
