The technique utilizes a multi-resolution (MR) model to represent the contrast sources, which are progressively estimated using a Bayesian compressive sensing (BCS) strategy with sparsity constraints. The proposed MR-BCS-CSI method is thoroughly tested using simulated data to validate its precision and stability. Comparative evaluations against current state-of-the-art techniques reveal the method?s strong performance and reliability.}, keywords = {microwave imaging (MI), contrast source inversion (CSI), Bayesian compressive sensing (BCS), inverse scattering (IS)} }
