An analysis of microwave imaging using a combination of multi-static radar imaging and inverse scattering tomography methods

We present an analysis of microwave imaging algorithm using a combination of radar imaging and inverse scattering tomography approaches. The proposed method estimates the region of high dielectric contrast by multi-static adaptive radar imaging as a preliminary stage, and then reconstructs dielectric profile by inverse scattering imaging. We confirm that the proposed method can reconstruct dielectric profile of the imaging target accurately when the shape of it is estimated by radar imaging with some degree of accuracy even if there are some measurement errors.
