Signal Processing for Microwave Array Imaging: TDC and Sparse Recovery
IEEE Transactions on Geoscience and Remote Sensing, 2012Unlike 1-D and 2-D microwave images, 3-D microwave image behaves typical sparsity. Consequently, sparse recovery technique can be used for 3-D microwave signal processing. Three popular signal processing techniques, the time-domain correlation method (TDC), pseudo-inverse method (PI), and compressed sensing method (CS), are discussed in this paper.

Three-Dimensional Sparse Turntable Microwave Imaging Based on Compressive Sensing
IEEE Geoscience and Remote Sensing Letters, 2015In this letter, we propose a fast reconstruction algorithm for 3-D turntable microwave imaging from sparse measurements. A conventional Fourier-transform-based 3-D microwave imaging method collects data over densely azimuth–elevation samples and needs a large amount of data storage and long collection time.

Study on sparse microwave imaging
Proceedings of 2011 IEEE CIE International Conference on Radar, 2011Sparse signal processing is introduced to microwave imaging technology, which forms a new theory, new system and new methodology in microwave imaging. Defined as sparse microwave imaging, it means that by the sparse domain representation of the observed object, the sparse microwave signal is acquired by sparse sampling in space or time domain.

Higher Order Sparse Microwave Imaging of PEC Scatterers
IEEE Transactions on Antennas and Propagation, 2016In this paper, we present an innovative algorithm for sparse imaging of perfect electric conducting (PEC) targets. The algorithm is based on higher order sources or multipoles, rather than zero-order ones as in the standard sparse imaging. We demonstrate that, due to the directivity of higher order sources, the imaging capabilities of the algorithm are

A Microwave Coincidence Imaging Method for Complex Target Based on Sparse Representation
2020 9th Asia-Pacific Conference on Antennas and Propagation (APCAP), 2020Microwave coincidence imaging (MCI) has great potential in super-resolution imaging realms, which has achieved a superior performance for sparse targets. However, its performance for complex target will degrade severely due to the weak sparsity. In this paper, the sparse representation method is applied to MCI and a reconstruction-based imaging method ...
