Exploitation of TE-TM Scattering Data for Microwave Imaging through the Multi-Scaling Reconstruction Strategy
By
Progress In Electromagnetics Research, Vol. 99, 245-260, 2009
Abstract
In this paper, the solution of two-dimensional inverse scattering problems is addressed by probing the unknown scenarios with TE and TM waves. To better exploit the information content of the scattered data the multi-zooming approach is used. The results of experiments with single as well as multiple scatterers are reported and discussed also in comparison with single-polarization inversions.
