Abstract

A method for the investigation of multilayered structures by using microwave probes is proposed. An iterative optimization procedure reconstructs the permittivity range profiles of such structures from backscattering data by optimizing a functional consisting of a term depending on the data and a regularization term. A linear process is also accounted for the global smoothness enforced by classical regularization. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
