Abstract :
In order to reconstruct accurate images by microwave tomography, it is essential to increase various observation data. In this article, polarization diversity is applied to an imaging sensor consisting of 4 planer arrays and 1 circular array for the microwave tomography. It is demonstrated by numerical simulation that the proposed method and sensor configuration can reconstruct images accurately.
