Although the MUltiple SIgnal Classification (MUSIC) algorithm has demonstrated suitability as a microwave imaging technique for detecting anomalies, there is a fundamental limit that it requires a switching device to be used which permits an antenna to transmit and receive signals simultaneously. In this paper, we design a MUSIC-type imaging function using scattering parameter data to find small anomaly and explore its mathematical structure. Considering the investigated structure, we confirm that the imaging performance is highly dependent on the antenna configurations and suggest an arrangement of antennas to enhance imaging performance. Simulation results with synthetic data are displayed to support theoretical result.
