Resolution and stability analysis in acousto-electric imaging∗

چکیده
We consider the optimization approach to the acousto-electric imaging problem. Assuming that the electric conductivity distribution is a small perturbation of a constant, we investigate the least square estimate analytically using (multiple) Fourier series, and confirm the widely observed fact that acousto-electric imaging has high resolution and is statistically stable. We also analyze the case of partial data and the case of limited-view data, in which some singularities of the conductivity can still be imaged.

N ov 2 01 0 2 D and 3 D reconstructions in acousto - electric tomography
We propose and test stable algorithms for the reconstruction of the internal conductivity of a biological object using acousto-electric measurements. Namely, the conventional impedance tomography scheme is supplemented by scanning the object with acoustic waves that slightly perturb the conductivity and cause the change in the electric potential measured on the boundary of the object. These per...
متن کاملAcousto-electromagnetic Tomography
The aim of this paper is to develop a mathematical framework for acousto-electromagnetic tomography and to introduce an efficient reconstruction algorithm. In electromagnetic wave imaging, the resolution is limited by the Rayleigh criterion, that is, half the operating wavelength. By mechanically perturbing the medium, we show that it is possible to achieve a significant resolution enhancement....
متن کاملA Surface-Coupled Optical Trap with 1-bp Precision via Active Stabilization.
Optical traps can measure bead motions with Å-scale precision. However, using this level of precision to infer 1-bp motion of molecular motors along DNA is difficult, since a variety of noise sources degrade instrumental stability. In this chapter, we detail how to improve instrumental stability by (1) minimizing laser pointing, mode, polarization, and intensity noise using an acousto-optical-m...
متن کاملQuantitative Thermo-acoustics and related problems
Thermo-acoustic tomography is a hybrid medical imaging modality that aims to combine the good optical contrast observed in tissues with the good resolution properties of ultrasounds. Thermo-acoustic imaging may be decomposed into two steps. The first step aims at reconstructing an amount of electromagnetic radiation absorbed by tissues from boundary measurements of ultrasounds generated by the ...
متن کاملElectro-Optical Design of Imaging Payload for a Remote Sensing Satellite
Remote sensing using small spacecraft arising from multi-objective economic activity problems is getting more and more developed. These satellites require very accurate pointing to specific locations of interest, with high reliability and small latency. The space borne imaging systems always attempted to achieve the highest ground resolution possible with the available technology at the given t...
