Js. Kang et Jw. Ra, INCOHERENT IMAGING METHOD OF 2-DIMENSIONAL CONDUCTING OBJECT BY USINGMULTIFREQUENCY TIME-HARMONIC SOURCE, Microwave and optical technology letters, 17(2), 1998, pp. 117-121
An incoherent imaging of a conducting cylinder illuminated by the time
-harmonic plane wave is obtained via the backprojections of the incohe
rent intensity patterns, which is acquired by averaging out the multif
requency intensities of the total field scattered from this object in
the circular rotational measurement configuration. The multi-frequency
effect is shown numerically, and is interpreted analytically by the m
utual coherence function defined in the frequency domain. This imaging
method is validated by imaging circular and elliptic conducting cylin
ders, and the conditions for obtaining better images are investigated.
