摘要:In the practical application of Ultra Wideband (UWB) through-wall radar imaging, the walls that are generally encountered consist of multiple layers, and there may be multiple targets, which presents challenges for the imaging algorithm. In this study, both the back-projection (BP) algorithm, which is a time-domain algorithm, and the phase-shift migration (PSM) algorithm, which is a frequency-domain algorithm, are used to locate two targets behind a two-layer wall. The image quality, the azimuth and range resolutions, the image entropy and the processing time of the two algorithms are compared. The simulation results demonstrate that the BP algorithm produces better image quality and that the PSM algorithm is faster. The effect of the sampling interval on the image entropy and processing time is discussed. In addition, the feasibility and the validity of the two algorithms are tested under noisy conditions. The results show that the two algorithms are robust, regardless of the presence of noise.
