A novel close-range imaging system

A coherent system with two FMCW or stepped frequency radar sensors separated by 1 - 2 m is presented for close range imaging. Resolution is achieved via range resolution from the two different sensor positions, exploiting both mono- and bistatic responses, thus give good facilities for multi-target scenarios. First test have been made using a vector measurement equipment for an antenna measurement range as radar simulator.
