Abstract
Motivated by numerous scattering problems where the media is lossy and yet can only be investigated from a single side, the authors discuss algorithms for reconstructing a lossy, stratified dielectric from one-sided plane wave impulse reflection responses. Novel features of these algorithms include: 1) solving the lossy media problem using only one-sided reflection response data; 2) exploiting oblique probing angles; 3) having origins in digital signal processing (DSP) theory; 4) employing fast algorithms that have been modified to solve the forward scattering problem; and 5) solving the scattering problems exactly, including accounting for multiple reflections. A new algorithm is introduced that reconstructs such a media from one-sided transverse electric (TE) and transverse magnetic (TM) impulsive plane wave reflection responses from a single oblique angle. The oblique-probing angle necessitates a bistatic measurement configuration. New probing constraints are developed for a previously presented algorithm based on probing at two angles of incidence. Algorithm stability and data correction are addressed. Numerical examples illustrate the new algorithm in synthesizing the media transient response and reconstructing the media.
