Summary: The reconstruction of obstacles embedded in a periodic waveguide with arbitrary geometry is considered. The measurement is on a line segment of the scattered field due to point sources inside the waveguide. A linear sampling type method is proposed to characterize the obstacles using the solutions of the near field ill-posed linear integral equations. Due to the fact that we consider waveguides with arbitrary geometry to compute the background Green’s function, we employ a method based on the limiting absorption principle and the recursive doubling technique. Furthermore, an algorithm is proposed to speed up the sampling procedure. Numerical examples are presented to demonstrate the performance of the proposed method.
