Abstract
The methods and device disclosed herein provide an electromagnetic portable device for imaging an object embedded within a medium, the device including an array including at least two transducers, at least one of transducers for transmitting a signal towards the object, and a transceiver attached to the transducers, the transceiver for transmitting at least one signal toward the object and receiving signals affected by the object while the array is moved in proximity to the medium, a data acquisition unit for receiving and storing the affected signals; and a processor unit for providing one or more hypothetical parameter values over a parameter space of the object and provide a target model per hypothesis of the parameter values, and computing a score value per hypothesis as a function of the target model and the affected signals.
