Abstract
A holography sensor system is provided that includes an illuminator, a backscatter array, an array controller, and processing circuitry. The illuminator may be configured to output an illumination signal into a target volume. The backscatter array may comprise a plurality of backscatter elements. The array controller operably coupled to the backscatter elements, and the array controller may be configured to activate selected backscatter elements to enable the selected backscatter elements to transmit a backscatter signal in response to receipt of the illumination signal. The receiver may be configured to receive the backscatter signals from the selected backscatter elements. The processing circuitry may be configured to receive the backscatter data based on the backscatter signals from the receiver, aggregate the backscatter data with other backscatter data to form a holographic field measurement data set, and generate an image of the target volume based on the holographic field measurement data set.
