The resonances that contain the information on the properties of the scattering target can be used for target reconstruction approaches. The inverse scattering theory for the resonances has been applied to the problems of the scattering for a spherical, cylindrical dielectric objects and dielectrically coated conductors, shown reasonable results. Though by using this method the thickness and the dielectric constants of the target can be obtained from a determination of the spacing and of the widths of the scattering resonances, the radius of the target should be given. In this paper, we suggest the improved inverse theory combined with the resonance scattering theory to obtain the radius in addition to the dielectric constant of the target. The applications of this method for scattering problems of electromagnetic waves from cylindrical targets were accomplished, and it shows its validity.
