Abstract

Non-invasive imaging is critical for component integrity assessment and structural health monitoring in a wide range of applications. Near-field microwave non-destructive techniques have been successfully used in the past to detect and map defects in opaque dielectric materials. This paper reports the development of a deployable microwave imaging system explicitly designed to alleviate some of the deployment limitations and expand the utility of microwave inspection systems in industrial settings. In the developed system, the microwave probe is moved by the operator on the gantry positioner above the specimen surface while relaying the probe's location as well as its raw measurements to a backend subsystem for image rendering. The functionality of the proposed imaging system is demonstrated herein based on the imaging results of various samples.
