Abstract :
We present a novel numerical approach for solving inverse source problems using time domain TLM. Our algorithm reconstructs the unknown excitation sources in the time domain using the observed field outside the source region. In this work, we apply our algorithm to thin source regions consisting only of boundary cells. The source reconstruction for this case is always unique and does not require any regularization procedures.
