Bistatic MIMO Radar Sensing of Specularly Reflecting Surfaces for Wireless Power Transfer

The measurement data VNA_20220722_232002_XETS_reduced.mat includes a data matrix 𝐑 acquired with a synthetic aperture measurement testbed described in [2] and [3]. Measured were N_f=1000 frequency steps in a band from $3-10$GHz of the scattering parameter S₂₁ between a synthetic $51$-ULA with antenna positions saved in the file ULA.mat and a synthetic (13×13)-URA with antenna positions saved in the file URA.mat. The file XETSantennaCharacterization.mat holds antenna gains of an XETS antenna [4] characterized in an anechoic chamber. XETS antennas were used on both the ULA (oriented towards the negative x-direction) and on the URA (oriented towards the positive x-direction).
These data have been used to perform ultra-wideband (UWB) bistatic radar imaging and wireless power transfer (WPT). Our implementation is provided in MAIN_wall_detection.mat.

Potential use: spherical wavefront beamforming, wireless power transfer, communication, environment learning, imaging, positioning, channel modeling
