Detecting Line Sources inside Cylinders by Analytical Algorithms

Inverse problems for line sources radiating inside a homogeneous magneto-dielectric cylinder are investigated.The developed algorithms concern the determination of the location and the current of each source.These algorithms are mostly analytical and are based on proper exploitation of the moments obtained by integrating the product of the total fi
