Improvement of resolution in aperture synthesis in near zone of radiation based on the application of the Prony’s method

Journal Title: Journal of Physics and Electronics - Year 2018, Vol 26, Issue 2

Abstract

Applicability of inverse filtering with evolution control for reconstruction of images obtained by aperture synthesis technique is considered. A horn antenna, which is moved in the transversal direction, is used in order to obtain a 2-dimensional image. Scanned structure consists of one or two similar metaplates. In the latter case the plates are coplanar and their common plane is parallel to the aperture of the antenna. Regularisation coefficients are found with the help of trial and error method. The image of a single plate was used to tune the software. The Prony’s method is tested as a separate way of estimation of the distance between the plates. Both methods are tested for a range of different distances between the plates and between the plates’ common plane and aperture of the antenna. It is shown that inverse filtration tends to provide better results if the scanned object is situated further from the antenna. Said method was proven to be precise enough to distinguish closely-spaced plates. The Prony’s method was proven to provide reliable distance measurements if it was tuned correctly.
