Review text

We give some numerical results, obtained for two-dimensional cylindrical objects under transverse magnetic illumination, i.e. with electric field parallel to the cylinder object axis. Three methods have been used: a conjugate gradient method, a Newton-Kantorovich method with identity operator or with gradient-by-zone operator, and a modified gradient method. In order to evaluate and compare their respective performance, the study has been carried out from synthetic data and accomplished by experimental verifications. Investigations on the initial guess of the complex permittivity profile have been made with a backpropagation scheme using the adjoint operator, allowing to provide an estimate of the induced current inside the inhomogeneous object. Different configurations of interest have been studied for applications of microwave imaging in the medical domain and for non-destructive testing. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0871.00041].
