Abstract

In this paper, we describe a single antenna time-reversal based detection scheme that can be used to enhance the performance of a radar system in a multipath rich scattering environment. Using time-reversal, the response from a cluttered medium is first ed. When the target enters into the medium, the electromagnetic energy focuses around the target so that a stronger echo is obtained. The experimental results show that depending on the amount of clutter in the medium, the performance of a radar detection scheme can be improved up to 4.8 dB using time-reversal methods with a single antenna.
