Abstract:
A scattering tomography method includes: radiating waves to an object from transmitting antenna elements arranged on a curved surface; receiving scattered waves by receiving antenna elements arranged on the curved surface; and reconstructing an image relating to the information on the interior of the object from scattered wave data representing the scattered waves received by the receiving antenna elements, and in the reconstructing, a function ϕ for reconstructing the image relating to the information on the interior of the object is set in advance, an equation which a fundamental scattered function satisfies is constructed, a visualization function ρ that is obtained by solving the equation is derived from the scattered wave data, and the image relating to the information on the interior of the object is reconstructed using the visualization function.
