Optmized patch-like antennas for through the wall radar imaging and preliminary results with frequency modulated interrupted continuous wave

Abstract: This paper presents optimized patch-like antennas for Through The Wall Imaging (TTWI) radar applications in the frequency range 0.5-2 GHz, and preliminary results using Frequency Modulated Interrupted Continuous Waveform (FMICW). Results of numerical simulations using basic models of the antenna are presented. The antenna optimization was aimed at making the radiation pattern more directional by focusing the energy in a single lobe to be directed towards the wall and the targets to be detected. The optimized a… Show more

“…Advances in materials used in antenna fabrication, such as dielectric lenses and metamaterial-inspired superstrates, also provide new directions to significantly enhance TTW radar performance. Examples include bandwidth extension and multi-frequency operation through feeding structure enhancements [160], antenna size reduction using high dielectric constant substrates, and precise beam focusing and control using metasurfaces.…”

“…Two different models of antennas have been designed and manufactured to work across the desired frequency bandwidth (0.7-2.2 GHz) and have a directional radiation pattern, so that the energy can be focused towards the wall and the targets to be detected, avoiding the reception of clutter and undesired signals from secondary lobes. These antennas are Antipodal Vivaldi and rectangular patch [32].…”
