Devices, systems, and methods for removing non-linearities in an inverse synthetic aperture radar (ISAR) image are provided. A method includes estimating pitch and roll about range and doppler axes of a time series of ISAR images including the ISAR image, interpolating ISAR image data based on the estimated pitch and roll resulting in interpolated ISAR image data, and resampling based on the interpolated ISAR image data and the time series of TSAR images resulting in an enhanced image.
Radar-based Cross-sectional Image Reconstruction of Subject
One or more aspects of this disclosure relate to the usage of an impulse radio ultra-wideband (IR-UWB) radar to reconstruct a cross-sectional image of subject in a noninvasive fashion. This image is reconstructed based on the pre- and post-processing of recorded waveforms that are collected by the IR-UWB radar, after getting reflected-off the subject. Furthermore, a novel process is proposed to approximate the different tissues' dielectric constants and, accordingly, reconstruct a subject's cross-sectional image.
