Abstract
Applications using millimeter wave (mmW) and THz radiation have increased during the past few years.
One of the principal applications of these technologies is the detection and identification
of objects buried beneath the soil, in particular land mines and unexploded ordnances. A
novel active mmW scanning imaging system was developed for this purpose. It is a
hyperspectral system that collects images at different mmW frequencies from
