First Claim
Patent Images
1. A through-wall imaging device having antenna elements for transmitting and receiving signals configured to pass through a wall for imaging objects behind the wall, the device comprising:
- a base having a carrier portion and a plurality of spaced-apart extensions connected thereto, at least a portion of said antenna elements being mounted on said extensions, the area between adjacent extensions, which is different from said carrier portion, being free of any material of the base at least when said extensions are in an operative state;
wherein said extensions are movable with respect to the carrier portion between a first position corresponding to a first operative state and a second position corresponding to a second operative state, andwherein said extensions are connected to the carrier portion in a manner enabling folding of the extensions onto the carrier portion.
