Funded Activity Summary

Enhanced Through-Wall Imaging using Bayesian Compressive Sensing. The aim of this project is to develop radar imaging techniques which enable us to 'see' objects behind walls and opaque materials. The major intended breakthrough is the ability to image objects behind walls and inside buildings or enclosed structures without accessing the scene. Novel signal and image processing algorithms, based on Bayesian compressive sensing, will be developed to enhance image quality and resolution, improve speed of operation, and reduce the cost and time of data acquisition and processing. Many applications are expected to benefit from this research including search and rescue, surveillance, security, and defence. The research outcomes are expected to enhance the capabilities of the Australian armed forces, counter-terrorism, police and law-enforcement agencies.
