INV-14050
Description
The use of millimeter-wave imaging techniques/systems is well known in prior art.
Current techniques/systems generally use portal configuration and/or monostatic
radar technology. The images generated using such systems often have reconstructed
artifacts, such as dihedral effects, misrepresenting sudden indentations and
protrusions. These artifacts in turn lead to undesirable false alarms. This invention
discloses a novel, on the move millimeter wave interrogation system that combines
multiple wave transmitters and receivers to create real-time, high resolution images
for personnel security screening, potentially overcoming prior art limitations and/or
unmet needs.
Value Proposition
The system:
• Is highly cost effective
• Enables a larger throughput as compared to current systems
• Enables a better detection probability and a lower false alarm rate
• Allows for an increased image resolution as compared to current imaging systems
• Allows for collection of data from different angles so as to inspect the whole body on the
move
• Enables an effective synchronization between all transmitters and receivers to create a high
resolution image of an object under screening
• Requires reduced number of receivers to form high resolution images as compared to
conventional systems
• Would be commercially useful for scanning and imaging in airports, transportation venues,
secure facilities, government buildings, and building entrances
