摘要
We present the design and implementation of a portable, digital, real-time random noise radar system operating in the ultrahigh frequency range for through-the-wall detection and imaging. Noise radar technology is combined with modern digital signal processing approaches to architect a system to covertly perform range imaging of obscured stationary and moving targets as well as to detect the presence of humans via micro-Doppler detection combined with empirical mode decomposition. We model the propagation and sampling nonidealities in the system and propose techniques to overcome the effect of these nonidealities. Experimental results demonstrate the system's capability to image target scenes and characterize human activity from different stand-off distances.
