Abstract :
In this work, we investigated dependence of the spatial resolution in a microwave tomography system on significant parameters such as an operating frequency, dielectric properties of testing material, number of testing antennas, diameter of the circular array, and total amount of measured data. The spatial resolution was calculated in 3 to 6 GHz, based on original estimation method in microwave imaging.
