Abstract

A new domain decomposition method for Maxwell's equations in conductive media is presented. Using this method reconstruction algorithms are developed for determination of dielectric permittivity function using time-dependent scattered data of electric field. All reconstruction algorithms are based on optimization approach to find stationary point of the Lagrangian. Adaptive reconstruction algorithms and space mesh refinement indicators are also presented. Our computational tests show qualitative reconstruction of dielectric permittivity function using anatomically realistic breast phantom.
