Passive Millimetre Wave Imaging: A Review

Abstract

The propagation of millimetre waves through the atmosphere is reviewed. Target temperature contrast and ranges possible are calculated for current passive millimetre wave detectors under various atmospheric conditions. Some possible future developments in passive millimetre wave imaging arrays are also discussed. Millimetre waves, Detectors, Atmospheric propagation.
