Surface Wave Multipath Signals in Near-Field Microwave Imaging
Microwave imaging techniques are prone to signal corruption from unwanted multipath signals. Near-field systems are especially vulnerable because signals can scatter and reflect from structural objects within or on the boundary of the imaging zone. These issues are further exacerbated when surface waves are generated with the potential of propagating along the transmitting and receiving antenna...
متن کاملAn apertureless near-field scanning optical microscope for imaging surface plasmons in the mid-wave infrared
ABSTRACT An apertureless near-field scanning optical microscope (a-NSOM) setup is described. Special consideration is given to important system components. Surface plasmons are defined, as is their relationship to aNSOM and their interaction with the scanning probe tip. We used this set-up to measure a metal-dielectric-metal (MDM) antenna integrated with a quantum cascade laser (QCL). The forme...
متن کاملThree-Dimensional Near-Field Microwave Holography for Tissue Imaging
This paper reports the progress toward a fast and reliable microwave imaging setup for tissue imaging exploiting near-field holographic reconstruction. The setup consists of two wideband TEM horn antennas aligned along each other's boresight and performing a rectangular aperture raster scan. The tissue sensing is performed without coupling liquids. At each scanning position, wideband data is ac...
متن کاملLow Scattering Photodiode-Modulated Probe for Microwave Near-Field Imaging
The space surrounding a radiating or scattering object is often divided into three regions, namely reactive near-field, near-field (NF) or Fresnel region and far-field (FF) or Fraunhoffer zones. In addition, the term “very-near-field" region is sometimes defined as very close to the antenna (e.g., antenna aperture). There are no abrupt boundaries between these three zones, however there are som...
متن کاملMicrowave Imaging: Inversion of Scattered Near-Field Measurements
In this paper, the problem of reconstructing the electromagnetic properties of unknown scatterers is treated by means of a spatial-domain technique. This technique combines the finite-element method and the Polak–Ribière nonlinear conjugate gradient optimization algorithm. The forward scattering problem is solved via the finite-element method, while the inversion is implemented by minimizing a ...
