Abstract

A method reconstructs a scene behind a wall by transmitting a signal through the wall into the scene. Parameters of the wall are estimated from a reflected signal. A model of a permittivity of the wall is generated using the parameters, and then the scene is reconstructed as an image from the reflected signal using the model and sparse recovery.
