✦ Synopsis
This article presents an overview of the application of enhancement based on the wavefield statistics within the available microwave imaging in nondestructive evaluation (NDE) of civil strucfrequency band. The experimental results clearly demonstrate the tures. The presentation includes the image formation algorithm opfeasibility as well as capability of this technique. erating in monostatic multiple-frequency mode, resolution enhance-The availability of spectral diversity allows variations in wavement by wavefield statistics, and object recognition procedures. Refield over the frequency bandwidth associated with an arbitrary sults from theoretical analysis, laboratory experiments, and full-scale target location to be used not only for resolution enhancement, field tests are discussed sequentially. ᭧
