© 2016 SPIE. A microwave-induced thermoacoustic detection system for embedded targets in lossy media is presented. The system achieves reliable detection of 5 cm × 5 cm × 2 cm targets embedded in a large Agarose sample at a 20 cm acoustic standoff. Repeated measurements across different target and sample configurations confirm the system's ability to distinguish between a target signal and a baseline control signal generated by the package without embedded targets. Post-processing techniques including filtering and baseline signal characterization further improve detection performance.
