Abstract :
In this paper, a level set algorithm is implemented for shape reconstruction of multiple perfect conducting objects in two-dimensions. Incident waves are assumed to be TM (Transverse Magnetic) plane waves. The presented results show the reconstruction of multiple cylinders up to five, with different cross-sections. The frequency hopping approach has shown a good convergence improvement.
