Abstract	In this paper, we propose a discrete-cosine-transform (DCT)-based approach for sense-through-foliage target detection when the echo signal quality is good, and a radar sensor network (RSN) and DCT-based approach when the echo signal quality is poor. A RAKE structure which can combine the echos from different cluster-members is proposed for clusterhead in the RSN. We compared our approach with the ideal case when both echos are available, i.e., echos with target and without target. We also compared our approach against the scheme in which 2-D image was created via adding voltages with the appropriate time offset. Simulation results show that our DCT-based scheme works much better than the existing approach, and our RSN and DCT-based approach can be used for target detection successfully while even the ideal case fails to do it.
