3D InISAR-based target reconstruction algorithm by using a Multi-Channel ground-based radar Demonstrator

A 3D reconstruction algorithm for non cooperative moving targets is proposed in this paper. This method exploits interferometric ISAR imaging (InISAR) to estimate the heights of the dominant scatterers with respect to the Image Projection Plane. In particular, the interferometric phases measured from two orthogonal baselines are used to reconstruct the third dimension from 2D-ISAR images. Some aspects that make such approach effective in a real scenario have been faced and their problems solved. In order to verify the effectiveness and the reliability of this technique, data from a suitably designed Multi Channel ground-based radar has been used.
