Abstract
We have built the millimeter-wave passive imaging system with a lens and mechanical scan antenna. The lens was designed based on optical theory in order to focus millimeter-wane. A full image was taken from image points scanned by Placing antenna at the representative focal plane selectively. An integrated antenna array device for low-loss and low-noise with the array of 4 by 1, where components such as antenna, balun, MMIC, and detector were assembled on a sin91e substrate, and a fermi tapered slot antenna with high-gain and low-side lobe were used for elements of this millimeter-wave passive imaging system. Two dimensional antenna arrangement on focal plane was achieved in this imaging system.
