Electrical Capacitance Tomography (ECT) is a popular technique for multi-phase fluidic imaging. For the sake of better microfluidics handling within a miniaturized platform, this paper presents a simulation study of a lab-on-chip 3D ECT model with two set of 8-planar-electrode arrays position circularly on the top and bottom layer of the sensing microchamber. The presented simulation studies are to reconstruct the 3D images of a square phantom (water) in a background (air) with different location by using Linear Backward Propagation (LBP) as the image reconstruction algorithm. The simulation results have shown that the proposed lab-on-chip 3D ECT is capable to identify the different position of the phantom.
