Nonlinear microwave imaging heavily relies on an accurate numerical electromagneticmodel of the antenna system. The model is used to simulate scatteringdata that is compared to its measured counterpart in order to reconstruct the image. In this paper an antenna system immersed in water is used to image differentcanonical objects in order to investigate the implication of modeling errors on thefinal reconstruction using a time domain-based iterative inverse reconstruction algorithmand three-dimensional FDTD modeling. With the test objects immersedin a background of air and tap water, respectively, we have studied the impact ofantenna modeling errors, errors in the modeling of the background media, and madea comparison with a two-dimensional version of the algorithm. In conclusion evensmall modeling errors in the antennas can significantly alter the reconstructed image. Since the image reconstruction procedure is highly nonlinear general conclusions arevery difficult to make. In our case it means that with the antenna system immersedin water and using our present FDTD-based electromagnetic model the imagingresults are improved if refraining from modeling the water-wall-air interface andinstead just use a homogeneous background of water in the model.
