Electrical capacitance tomography (ECT) is a non-invasive imaging reconstruction technique that aims at visualization of cross sectional permittivity distribution of dielectric object based on the measured capacitance. There are lots of iterative image reconstruction methods to accelerate convergence rate and enhance quality of reconstructed image, Among them iterative Landweber method is one of the widely used reconstruction algorithm in En. In this paper, modified generalized Landweber method is proposed to accelerate convergence rate. In doing so, acceleration term is considered to the generalized Landweber method with shaping matrix and an optimal step length is determined analytically. Extensive computer simulations are provided to illustrate the reconstruction performance of the proposed algorithm.
