Systems and methods for using a conducted energy weapon in conjunction with a noninvasive detection of impermissible objects

A method comprising:

• scanning a subject with a portable coherent radar system on a single chip that operates in a range of operation between approximately 0.1 terahertz and 1 terahertz, the portable coherent radar system being in communication with a conducted energy weapon, the conducted energy weapon configured to allow a user to fire at least one electrode when an impermissible object is determined to be present on the subject;
• determining by a processor, based on the results of the scan, if the impermissible object is present on the subject;
• sending, by the processor, a signal to allow the user to fire the at least one electrode from the conducted energy weapon when the impermissible object is determined to be present on the subject;
• firing, by the user, the at least one electrode at the subject,
• where the portable coherent radar system includes:
• a transmitter having at least
• a ramp generator electrically coupled to, and configured to provide a voltage signal to, a wide band voltage controlled oscillator,
• a directional coupler electrically coupled to the wide band voltage controlled oscillator, and
• a phased-array antenna electrically coupled to the directional coupler and configured to transmit high-frequency signals in the range of operation.
