1. A system for generating a three-dimensional (3D) imaging of an object, said system comprising:
an electromagnetic transducer array surrounding the object said electromagnetic transducer array comprising:
a plurality of electromagnetic transducers subarrays;
a transmitter unit for applying RF (radio-frequency) signals to said electromagnetic transducer array; and
a receiver unit for receiving a plurality of RF signals affected by object from said electromagnetic transducers array;
a Radio Frequency Signals Measurement Unit (RFSMU) configured to receive and measure said plurality of plurality of affected RF signals and provide RF data of the object; and
at least one processing unit, said at least one processing unit is configured to:
separately process said RF signals from each of said plurality of electromagnetic transducers subarrays to identify the dielectric properties of said object and construct one or more 3D images of said object.
