Abstract

Hardware implants & counterfeit devices in the US power grid pose a significant national security threat. Asset owners currently have few options for detecting the presence of such devices “in the wild”. The goal of this work is to develop a non-invasive sensing method to solve this problem. In this work we evaluate the feasibility of implementing a nonlinear UWB radar tomography system to differentiate between electronic internals of externally-similar devices using low-cost off-the-shelf hardware.
