Abstract

An intuitive deconvolution algorithm known s CLEAN is considered as a means of improving images associated with microwave nondestructive evaluation (NDE). Flawed metallic surfaces are scanned using a continuous wave (cw), X-band synthetic aperture radar (SAR), and images are produced using a synthetic-aperture focusing algorithm. The results are compared with those obtained by further processing the data using the CLEAN algorithm. The utility of adopting such a scheme to improve flaw detection is discussed.
