Linear Sampling Method

Abstract

This project was concerned with the use and further development of the "linear sampling method" for determining the support of an anomaly in a piecewise constant background medium from measured electromagnetic scattering data. The main accomplishments were: (1) the development of the mathematical theory of the linear sampling method for Maxwell's equations in the three-dimensional anisotropic media; and (2) the numerical implementation of the linear sampling method for a three-dimensional scalar problem of locating buried orthotropic objects in the earth.
