| Abstract | This study presents the concept, design, and operation of a low-cost and lightweight multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) radar system, dedicated to the characterisation of complex volumetric environments such as snow, forest, sand etc. using synthetic aperture radar tomographic focusing. The system consists of six transmitting and six receiving antennas, operated in a multi-static configuration, resulting in an equivalent mono-static vertical virtual array. Antenna positions have been set considering a trade-off between coupling effects, imaging ambiguities due to spectral folding and vertical resolution. The system also contains radio frequency signal generation and acquisition blocks and has been developed and operated at the IETR laboratory of the University of Rennes 1. An element-orthogonal frequency division multiplexing technique is proposed that avoids the use of switches for selecting transmission and reception channels, using a specific carrier for each transmit channel, and spectral analysis of each receive channel, allowing the 36 MIMO channels to be retrieved. The use of a time-domain back-projection algorithm for imaging in the elevation direction provides results that confirm the potential of the system for the characterisation of complex media. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
