Evaluation of Human Body Scattering in Near and Far Field by Iterative Physical Optics for mmWave Sensing Applications
Abstract
Milliliter-wave radar-based human body sensing requires for precise modeling of the backscattered field. This article presents an Iterative Physical Optics model designed for evaluating the near field backscattering of lossy dielectric target. The model is first validated by millimeter wave measurement in anechoic chamber and applied to simplified human body, in order to examine the impact that proximity to the target can have on the electromagnetic response.
