Inverse Diffraction Theory and Computation of Minimum Source Regions of Far Fields

Figure 11

(a) Contour plot of the magnitude of the near field radiated by the minimum energy source. The support of this source is the minimum convex source region estimate corresponding to test origins (−10,0), (10,0), (0,−10), (0,10), (−10,10), and (10,−10) (shown in black color). (b) Contour plot of the magnitude of the near field radiated by the original source. The two plots are almost identical, as desired.
