Abstract

Development of millimeter wave and microwave tomography for nondestructive testing and subsurface investigations is suggested. It may be manufactured as well in waveguide modification as in quasioptical one. Description of the main principles of creation of the tomographic system both for millimeter waves band and for microwaves is given below. The system combines possibilities as well of tomograph operating “on passage” as tomograph operating in regime of undersurface measurements. Using both of these approaches will allow us to create microwave or millimeter wave tomograph providing the image reconstruction of the object under investigation. The suggesting version of tomography is orientated towards applications in industry, medicine, detection and identification of abandoned objects and other fields.
