Short range radar imaging systems for various security and non-destructive testing (NDT) applications are mainly based on synthetic aperture radar (SAR) or digital beam forming (DBF) techniques. In this article the development of a real-time SAR and a real-time DBF system is presented. The goal is to achieve a 3D image of a large measurement area with a high lateral and range resolution in order to detect suspicious items or material approach. This can be realized with a SAR system which is based on a new rotating virtual antenna concept. Another approach is a digital beam forming concept consisting of spatially distributed transmitters and receivers. Experimental results on specific test objects are presented to prove the performance of both concepts.
