Abstract :
This paper deals with a procedure for retrieving the Fresnel reflection coefficients of a half-space medium starting from measurements collected under a reflection mode multistatic configuration. In particular, the procedure consists in inverting a linear integral operator which links the reflected field measurements and the Fresnel reflection coefficients. Some numerical results are presented to show the effectiveness of the proposed procedure.
