The technique of time-reversal acoustics was applied to image a bottle filled with saline, using an eight element Vivaldi antenna array with frequency bandwidth 2 to 8 GHz. At these short length scales, a smooth three-dimensional image of the bottle was obtained, with the usual limitations imposed by limited offset and frequency. Time snapshots of the wavefield evolution in reversed time are presented for two real data sets. The first, shows the focusing for the single target of the bottle, while the second demonstrates the principle for two targets.
