Abstract :
The level set algorithm is employed for reconstruction of multiple homogeneous three-dimensional dielectric objects. The marching cubes method is used for generating the triangular mesh for the MoM forward solver. The presented results show the capability of the level set algorithm with successful retrieval of multiple objects using a single initial guess.
