Coherent Distributed Radar for High-Resolution Through-Wall Imaging

Abstract

The proposed work is in direct support of the Office of Naval Research's Transparent Urban Structures (TUS) program. The objective of the TUS program is to improve the collection, understanding, and dissemination of intelligence for the urban conflict. Through TUS, ONR seeks to develop technology which assists the warfighter in understanding the urban terrain of interest by detecting and classifying threats, both inside buildings and underground, and by maximizing situational awareness inside structures. The key focus of TUS is to develop advanced technologies that make urban man-made structures transparent, thereby eliminating the safe harbor that buildings provide to hostile forces and their malicious activities.
