Experimental Validation of a Linear Inverse Scattering TWI Algorithm by a SF-CW Radar

We present the experimental validation of a through-wall imaging (TWI) algorithm based on a sliced linearized inverse scattering approach. The experimental validation is performed by processing measurements collected by a stepped frequency ultrawideband radar in a realistic TWI scenario.
