Abstract :
We investigate the measurement accuracy of an ultra-wideband time domain microwave tomography system. A phantom is imaged by means of the system and the reconstructed images are compared to those obtained with an ultra-wideband frequency domain system. The results suggest that the permittivity reconstructions obtained by means of the time domain and the frequency domain systems are very similar to each other, but the conductivity profile reconstructed from time domain measurements presents worse quality than that obtained from frequency domain measurements.
