Multistatic millimeter-wave imaging structures are superior to their monostatic counterparts for natural objects of sudden profile variations. image reconstruction is conventionally performed via synthetic aperture radar (SAR)-based methods which, in spite high accuracy, computationally burdensome. On the other side, Fourier-based multistatic systems also faces few challenges including multidimensional interpolation, a plane-wave approximation spherical waves, and k-space partitioning. This...

In a photoacoustic (PA) imaging system, the detectors are bandwidth-limited. Therefore, they capture PA signals with some unwanted ripples. This limitation degrades resolution/contrast and induces sidelobes artifacts in reconstructed images along axial direction. To compensate for limited bandwidth effect, we present signal restoration algorithm, where mask is designed to extract at absorber positions remove improves resolution contrast image.
