Bifocusing-Based Imaging of Small Penetrable Dielectric Objects From Fresnel Dataset

Sangwoo Kang;Minyeob Lee;Won-Kwang Park;Seong-Ho Son

IEEE Transactions on Antennas and Propagation
Year: 2025 | Early Access Article |
The bifocusing method (BFM) is one of the most effective non-iterative techniques for recognizing the existence and outline shape of a set of objects. In most previous studies, the BFM was designed under the assumption that complete elements of the multi-static response (MSR) matrix are collectable. Unfortunately, in the setup in some laboratory-controlled experiments, it is impossible to collect ...Show More
