On the Determination of a Function from an Elliptical Radon Transform

Functional Analysis 2013-10-07 v6

Abstract

In recent years, Radon type transforms that integrate functions over various sets of ellipses/ellipsoids have been considered in SAR, ultrasound reflection tomography, and radio tomography. In this paper, we consider the transform that integrates a given function in \RRn\RR^n over a set of solid ellipsoids of rotation with a fixed eccentricity and foci restricted to a hyperplane. Inversion formulas are obtained for appropriate classes of functions that are even with respect to the hyperplane. Stability estimates, range description, and local uniqueness results are also provided.
