Abstract(summary):

A synthetic bandwidth radar as an approach to build ultra-wideband (UWB) imaging systems is presented. The method provides an effective solution to mitigate the challenges of UWB antenna's implementation with ideal performance. The proposed method is implemented by dividing the utilized UWB into several channels, or sub-bands, and designing an antenna array that includes a number of antennas equal to the number of channels. Each of those antennas is designed to have excellent properties across its corresponding channel. As part of the proposed approach, a two-stage calibration procedure is used to accurately estimate the effective permittivity of a heterogeneous imaged object at different angles and the phase center of each antenna for accurate delay time estimation. When imaging an object, each of the antennas transmits and captures signals only at its channel. Those captured signals are properly combined and processed to form an image of the target that is better than the current systems that use array of UWB antennas. The presented method is tested on breast imaging using the band 3-10 GHz via simulations and measurements on a realistic heterogeneous phantom.
