Abstract

Mathematics Mathematics, Applied Physical Sciences Science & Technology
In this paper, we employ asymptotic analysis to determine information about small volume defects in a known anisotropic scattering medium from far field scattering data. The location of the defects is reconstructed via the MUSIC algorithm from the range of the multi static response matrix derived from the asymptotic expansion of the far field pattern in the presence of small defects. Since the same data determines the transmission eigenvalues corresponding to the perturbed media, we investigate how the presence of the defects changes the transmission eigenvalues and use this information to recover the strength of the small defects. We provide convergence results on transmission eigenvalues as the size of the defects tends to zero as well as derive the first correction term in the asymptotic expansion of the simple transmission eigenvalues. Numerical examples are presented to show the viability of our imaging method. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
