Penetrating 3-D Imaging at 4- and 25-m Range Using a Submillimeter-Wave Radar
Ken B. Cooper,Robert J. Dengler,Nuria Llombart,Tomas Bryllert,Goutam Chattopadhyay,Erich Schlecht,John Gill,Chien-Ping Lee,Anders Skalare,Imran Mehdi,Peter H. Siegel +10 more
TL;DR: In this article, a high-resolution imaging radar operating at 576-605 GHz is capable of detecting weapons concealed by clothing at standoff ranges of 4-25 m. The present system can image a torso with <1 cm resolution at 4 m standoff in about five minutes.

A High-Resolution Imaging Radar at 580 GHz
Ken B. Cooper,Robert J. Dengler,Goutam Chattopadhyay,Erich Schlecht,John Gill,Anders Skalare,Imran Mehdi,Peter H. Siegel +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, a high-resolution imaging radar at 580 GHz was developed, which achieved centimeter-scale range resolution while utilizing fractional bandwidths of less than 3% by employing the frequency modulated continuous wave (FMCW) radar technique.
