Abstract

A microwave imaging model is presented for detection of breast cancer tissues by combining the finite element method and the transformation electromagnetics approach. An inverse scattering problem is formulated based on genetic optimization algorithm, and its expensive cost function evaluations are accelerated by using the transformation electromagnetics approach, which allows using a uniform or rectangular mesh even when irregular geometries are present inside the domain. Simulation results are demonstrated to measure the performance of the model.
