This paper presents a new millimeter-wave sensing system used for near-field imaging applications. The presented system is composed of a parabolic reflector which is fed by an array of compressive antennas. A Compressive Horn Antenna (CHA) is manufactured by inserting a dielectric piece with a pseud...
