Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) Ultra-wide band (UWB) pulse radars have an immeasurable potential for
high range resolution imaging in the near field and
are applicable to accurate spatial measurement
for rescue robots or security systems.
SAR (Synthetic Aperture Radar) algorithm can create an
accurate and stable target image in the near field.
However, in the case of complex or multiple targets,
this algorithm suffers from increased shadow regions
or a false image caused by multiple scattering echoes.
In general, a propagation path of a multiple scattering wave is
different from that of a single scattering one,
then a multiple scattering echo includes an
independent information of target surfaces.
This paper proposes a shadow region imaging algorithm
based on the aperture synthesis for multiple scattering data.
The performance evaluations in numerical simulation
reveal that the proposed method remarkably enlarges
the visible range of target surfaces
without a priori information of surrounding environment.
