Abstract

TRW has developed a new passive millimeter wave camera for the Navy using its unique Millimeter Wave Monolithic Integrated Circuit (MMIC) technology. It operates as a pushbroom or scanning imager and can be utilized for missions that do not require as rapid a frame rate as in video-rate imagery. It is designed as a large-aperture, wide-field-of-view camera. Its focal plane consists of two rows of MMIC-based direct detection receivers and provides full sampling of the imaged scene.
