Summary:In this article we present recent achievements in UWB measurements in Lithuania. The main purposes of those measurements are to prove the possibility to detect objects behind non-metallic barriers and to characterize them. Different UWB measurements techniques (ISAR, SAR, MIMO - radar systems) allow to draw images of objects, as well as to analyze the small motions of objects and to measure the rate of respiration and heart beats. This work shows the possibility of using UWB radar systems in the rescue operations (live being detection), anti-terrorism (the detection of unauthorized objects under clothing) and medicine (remote monitoring of patients, detection of women's breast cancer).
