Abstract :
Preliminary imaging results are shown using datasets collected by a novel three-dimensional microwave imaging system based on the modulated scattering technique. Probes are used to measure the φ- and z- electric field components at the receivers. Data collected for two objects-of-interest are inverted using the contrast source inversion algorithm formulated using the finite-element method for 3D full-vectorial problems.
