Abstract:
An ultra-wide band microwave based personnel/passenger screening system, and in particular, a system for material specific detection, uses non-ionizing radiation in which focused beams of low intensity microwave radiation are projected in rapid succession at an individual as they walk through a portal.

Claim (Index 1):
A portal for scanning a passenger walking through an inspection region along a longitudinal axis, wherein the passenger is carrying at least one object on the passenger's body, the portal comprising:\n a funneled entrance comprising a first set of two opposing panels installed at a first angle to the longitudinal axis, said first angle being in a range of 5 to 85 degrees; a funneled exit comprising a second set of two opposing panels installed at a second angle to the longitudinal axis, said second angle being in a range of 5 to 85 degrees; a central portal comprising a third set of two opposing panels positioned parallel to each other and located between said funneled entrance and funneled exit, wherein the first, second and third sets of two opposing panels form the inspection region and comprise a plurality of transmitter elements to project microwave beams on the passenger as said passenger passes through the portal and a plurality of receiver elements to receive scattered microwave beams from the passenger, and wherein more than one transmitter element is active simultaneously and generates a plurality of scans of the inspection region while the passenger passes through the portal; and a plurality of processing blocks associated with said plurality of transmitter and receiver elements to process the scattered microwave beams and output data comprising at least one of a time, phase or frequency domain information, wherein the scattered microwave beams are a result of interactions of the projected microwave beams with an upper surface of the at least one object, a rear surface of the at least one object, and a portion of the passenger adjacent to the upper surface of the at least one object, and wherein said at least one of time, phase or frequency domain information is used to determine a location, shape, size or relative permittivity of the at least one object.
