Abstract

Through-the-wall imaging (TWI) is an emerging area of research and development which is very much useful in urban warfare situations. Ultra-wide band range radar is the best suitable for this application where this range of signals has the capability of penetrating through the materials but still can provide better resolution. The incorporation of signal processing techniques on the raw data will give better representation of the scanned scene. The paper uses impulse radar for TWI, and back projection algorithm is used to retrieve the B-scan signal. A constant gain of factor 100 is used to increase the echo strength. Singular value decomposition is used to reduce the clutter from the B-scan signal and the peak signal to noise ratio is observed to be −3.79 dB.
