The resonances that contain the information on the properties of the scattering target can be used for target reconstruction approaches. The inverse scattering theory for the resonances has been applied to the problems of the scattering for a spherical, cylindrical dielectric objects and dielectrically coated conductors, shown reasonable results. Though by using this method the thickness and the dielectric constants of the target can be obtained from a determination of the spacing and of the widths of the scattering resonances, the radius of the target should be given. In this paper, we suggest the improved inverse theory combined with the resonance scattering theory to obtain the radius in addition to the dielectric constant of the target. The applications of this method for scattering problems of electromagnetic waves from cylindrical targets were accomplished, and it shows its validity.

In this paper, we proposed a new algorithm of the inverse scattering for the reconstruction of unknown dielectric scatterers using the finite-difference time-domain method and the design sensitivity analysis. We introduced the design sensitivity analysis based on the gradient for the fast convergence of the reconstruction. By introducing the adjoint variable method for the efficient calculation, we derived the adjoint variable equation. As an optimal algorithm we used the steepest descent method and reconstructed the dielectric targets using the iterative estimation. To verify our algorithm we will show the numerical examples for the two-dimensional $TM^2$ cases.

The effects of high frequency noises on a perturbational inversion technique for a stratified dispersive medium are investigated in this paper. It is shown that the perturbational solution becomes unstable under high frequency noises. The physical origin of this instability is described. In order to enhance the robustness of the perturbational inverse scattering solution, a parametric inversion technique is introduced. The examples for the 2-pole and the 3-pole reflection coefficients are compared and contrasted, and improvement of the robustness of the solutions is shown.

The nonuniqueness of a mathematically rigorous solution to 2-dimensional inverse scattering problems is explained in a limiting view of the numerical calculations based on the spectral-domain moment method. It is illustrated that its theoretical uniqueness cannot be assured even by performing additional measurements of the scattered fields not only along multiple lines but also with angular/frequency-diversities. In a real situation, however, computational error and measurement noise are inevitable. Those limitations render it meaningless to controvert the existence of a theoretically rigorous solution. Hence the most practical issue is how to remedy the instability of its practically approximate solution.

In this study, the solution of Gel'fand-Levitan-Marchenko integral equation in the inverse scattering problem is efficiently solved for arbitrarily specified spectra pattern which are reflected from the restricted potential. The procedure is based on the successive approach without iterations. This method lessens the truncation errors which plague conventional design schemes using specific windows for reflection coefficients. It is shown that the method is adequate for the synthesis of the continuously varying one-dimensional potential of the nonuniformly distributed dielectric constants.

A method for the synthesis of one-dimensional nonlinear distribution function is presented for the desired inverse scattering pattern. This method is based on the inverse transform of the solution of the Riccati equation derived from one-dimensional inverse scattering problem. Since the solution is analogous to the array factor or normalized space factor in collinear array antenna, the synthesis method for field pattern is applied for the construction of the involved line-source nonlinear distribution function. The suggested method is carried out under the optimization process, and is numerically verified by synthesizing the dispersive transmission line profile within the specified frequency band and control of scattered field on resistive strip.

This paper presents techniques of 2-D scattering center extraction and 2-B ISAR(Inverse SAR) image formation for scattering wave which is scattered by a target. In general, 2-D IFFT is widely used to obtain 2-D scattering center and ISAR image of targets. But, this method has drawbacks, that is poor in a resolution aspect. To overcome these shortcomings with the FT(Fourier Transform)-based method, various techniques of high resolution signal processing were developed. In this paper, algorithms of 2-D scattering center extraction and ISAR image formation such as 2-D MEMP(Matrix Enhancement and Matrix Pencil), 2-D ESPRIT(Estimation of Signal Parameter via Rotational Invariance Techniques) are described. In order to show the performances of each algorithm, we use scattering wave of the ideal point scatterers and F-18 aircraft to estimate 2-D scattering center and abtain 2-D ISAR image.

A tapered impedance-matching line is designed by an inverse scattering method for the one-dimensional medium. The phase compensation factor(PCF) is introduced in order to reduce the error in the inverse scattering process to reconstruct the permittivity profile. By estimating the permittivity profile of the virtual one-dimensional dielectric medium whose reflection characteristic is the same as that of the specified matching line, the matching line is synthesized. The method can be used to design impedance-matching lines with arbitrary passband characteristics without any equivalent circuit analysis. The inevitable errors in the method using the time-domain reflection coefficient can be avoided by using the frequency-domain reflection coefficient.
