a 2D scenario, by exploiting magnetic sources as transmitting antennas. Explicit formulas to compute the scattered field from
dielectric anomalies are derived for both homogeneous and half-space background scene. A linear inverse scattering approach
is formulated and analysed for both the scenarios; finally, the performance of the two proposed approaches is tested against
full-wave finite-differences in time-domain (FDTD) data simulating the exact scattering phenomenon.
