Abstract
W-band radiometer have been shown to be effective in detecting metallic and non-metallic weapons concealed under heavy garments in both indoor and outdoor situations. We now have a system providing near real time-time display and weapon detection in a man portable demonstration system. The system consists of 34 W-Band detectors in a 12 inch Cassegrain system with a mechanical scanner. The system also includes a long wave infrared camera, which aids the operator in selecting targets.
