Abstract

Abstract

We present a passive millimeter wave imager for aerial vehicle navigation in degraded visual and GPS-denied environments. The sensor employs aperture synthesis imaging techniques with optical upconversion of millimeter wave signals and coherent reconstruction in the optical domain to enable a suitably small form factor.
