Abstract

As a result of its relatively short wavelength coupled with relatively high penetration of many materials, millimeter- wave imaging provides a powerful tool for penetrating bad weather or the detecting of concealed articles. By using a passive approach such as that implemented here, it is possible to accomplish these tasks without generating any form of radiation that could be either be picked up by an enemy or raise health concerns. In this paper we will detail software and algorithm improvements that have resulted in significant enhancements to the quality of our imagery.
