Abstract

Perfect electric conductors (PECs) are reconstructed integrating the subspace-based optimization method (SOM) within the iterative multiscaling approach (IMSA). Without a priori information on the number or/and the locations of the scatterers and modeling their electromagnetic (EM) scattering interactions with a (known) probing source in terms of surface electric field integral equations, a segment-based representation of PECs is retrieved from the scattered field samples. The proposed IMSA-SOM inversion method is validated against both synthetic and experimental data by assessing the reconstruction accuracy, the robustness to the noise, and the computational efficiency with some comparisons, as well.
