Recent Developments in the Qualitative Approach to Inverse Electromagnetic Scattering Theory
نویسنده
چکیده
We consider the inverse scattering problem of determining both the shape and some of the physical properties of the scattering object from a knowledge of the (measured) electric and magnetic fields due to the scattering of an incident time harmonic electromagnetic wave at fixed frequency. We shall discuss the linear sampling method for solving the inverse scattering problem which does not require any a priori knowledge of the geometry and the physical properties of the scatterer. Included in our discussion is the case of partially coated objects and inhomogeneous background. We give references for numerical examples for each problem discussed in this paper.

Open problems in the qualitative approach to inverse electromagnetic scattering theory
We formulate a number of open problems for time-harmonic inverse electromagnetic scattering theory focusing on uniqueness theorems, the determination of the support of a scattering object and the determination of material parameters
متن کاملInequalities in Inverse Scattering Theory ∗
Until recently, reconstruction algorithms for solving inverse electromagnetic scattering problems have been based on either nonlinear optimization techniques or on linearized models based on weak scattering approximations [6]. In the past ten years a third approach to reconstruction has been developed which comes under the rubric of qualitative methods in inverse scattering theory, the most pop...

متن کاملA Computer Modeling of Mie-Scattering by Spherical Droplets Within the Atmosphere
The Earth’s atmosphere is an environment replete with particles of differ-ent sizes with various refractive indices which affect the light radiation traveling through it. The Mie scattering theory is one of the well-known light scattering techniques ap-plicable to modeling of electromagnetic scattering from tiny atmospheric particles or aerosols floating in the air or within the clouds. In this...
متن کاملPolarisation Effects in Surface and Volume Scattering
In this paper we review recent developments in scattering theory related to applications involving polarised electromagnetic waves. We concentrate on applications in random media where second and higher order moments of the scattered field are important. We split the discussion into surface and volume scattering effects and consider each separately. However, we employ a unified approach based o...
