Conference Paper
Published in:
2007 IEEE Int. Symp. on Circuits and Systems, 27-30 May 2007, pp. 1975-1978.
Summary
Millimeter-wave radiation and detection offers the possibility of detecting concealed weapons. Passive imaging measures the mm-wave radiation emitted from target objects. A passive mm-wave imager and the designs affecting the overall system performance are discussed. With low power receiver architecture and SiGe ICs, a focal plane based full staring array is feasible and can provide a high thermal resolution, ~1.1K at >10Hz frame rate.
