Tomograms with guided waves

Submitted by alexcripton on Tue, 07/23/2013 - 08:26

hello

I am new to guided waves and I want to make a research on tomography of these waves. I have found several methods but there are some problems:

1.I can not get much info from articles on how to implement?

2. Nobody has done a comparisonn between methods and the best method is not recognised/

3. I should know some prequisites of Signnal Processing and Tomography (both in concept and writing codes) and I'd like to ask if annyone knows some good resources

Thanks a lot in advance
