Abstract :
The problem of localizing small scatterers is dealt with. In particular, the time-reversal MUSIC and the linear distributional approach are compared from the achievable resolution and the stability against the noise point of view. The study is conducted for a two-dimensional and scalar geometry and for the case of perfect electric conducting scatterers.
