Abstract

Undesired reflections at the interface between air and other materials can compromise the detection of targets and saturate and block the receiver in a variety of radar systems for applications such as through-wall imaging, ground penetration radar, and medical imaging. In this paper we propose a technique based on frequency modulated interrupted continuous wave (FMICW) signals as a novel approach to mitigate/remove the undesired reflections. The proposed technique has been successfully validated through different in-field experiments performed with a radar system built for the purpose.
