Comparison of UWB Radar Backscattering by the Human Torso and a Phantom

• An Ultra Wide Band (UWB) radar is used to measure the backscattering of a human and a human phantom. The choice of material and shape for the human phantom is discussed. The dielectric properties of the material (wet sand) used in the experiment are measured by a retromodeling technique and also calculated by mixture formulas. The appropriate frequency choice for the application is discussed.
