Theory and Applications of Computational Time-Reversal Imaging

Abstract

This document constitutes the final project report for Contract # FA9550-04-1-0187 titled Theory and Applications of Computational Time-reversal Imaging. The report summarizes the theoretical development and implementation of time-reversal based imaging and target detection algorithms for locating targets from multistatic data collected from unstructured phased antenna arrays. The report summarizes the main theoretical results obtained in the program and includes both computer simulated examples as well as results from experimental data collected by a research team from Carnegie Mellon University illustrating the use of the algorithms developed in the project. The final section of the report outlines goals for follow-on research in these general areas.
