Abstract :
Microwave imaging is a topic of continuous research for its potential in biomedical area and in particular for breast cancer detection. This paper presents a novel multi-frequency differential linearized (FDL) technique aimed to confer quantitative performance to the previous UWB Magnitude Combined Tomography while preserving its advantages in terms of robustness and simplicity.
