Imaging of Dielectric Objects by BCS-TE

The reconstruction of sparse scatterers under multiview transverse-electric illumination is considered in this report. A probabilistic formulation of the “inverse source” problem is assumed. Representative numerical results are presented to investigate the numerical efficiency,the accuracy, and the robustness of the proposed methodology.
