Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Passive Millimeter-Wave (PMMW) imaging techniques have the problem that the contrast depends on background temperature and the contrast becomes low as the background temperature increases. In order to overcome this problem, the effectof millimeter wave illumination to the objects to increase the contrast of PMMW imaging is investigated. In this report, the illuminating source composed of parabolic reflector is applied to PMMW imaging and the improvement of contrast is experimentally demonstrated.
