Abstract

An efficient nonlinear contrast source inversion scheme for electromagnetic imaging of sparse two-dimensional investigation domains is proposed. To avoid generating a sequence of linear sparse optimization problems, the non-linearity is directly tackled using the nonlinear Landweber (NLW) iterations. A self-adaptive projected accelerated steepest descent (A-PASD) algorithm is incorporated to enhance the efficiency of the NLW iterations. The algorithm enforces the sparsity constraint by projecting the result of each steepest descent iteration into the L1-norm ball and selects the largest-possible iteration step without sacrificing from convergence. Numerical results, which demonstrate the proposed schemes accuracy, efficiency, and applicability, are presented.
