Abstract: | ![]() Results of experimental investigations on radar sensing of inhomogeneous media and objects with the use of both superbroadband (from 0.5 to 17 GHz) multifrequency scanning and supershort nanosecond and subnanosecond radar pulses are considered. It is demonstrated that addition of angular and spatial scanning and subsequent synthesis of a large aperture allow a three-dimensional tomography of low-contrast inhomogeneities to be realized with a spatial resolution of about 1 cm. Examples are presented that confirm a high efficiency of the method for contactless tomography of the forest structure and detection and visualization of infantry mines below a rough sand surface. __________ Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 9, pp. 20–25, September, 2006. |
