Implementation of Compact Ultra wide Band Antenna Design for Breast Cancer Tumor detection

Abstract

One of the applications of UWB antenna is for detecting a cancer tumor according to breast cancer model system. The absolute dimensions of antenna are 44x30mm2 having a thickness of 1.6 mm. It involves Ultra wide band of 80% frequency range of 3 GHz–12 GHz for the FCC band. The proposed antenna resulted high gain and omni-directional radiation patterns and a considerable impedance matching. The optimized functioning of the antenna is illustrated by the simulation results. This antenna has been implemented in a designed system model with dielectric properties of a human breast capable to detect peculiar bodies. The tumor is detected and examined by the received Proportions and Positional coordinates, accessed by the application of UWB antenna. The accurate position coordinates of the tumor inside the breast are obtained at the places with the least Specific absorption rate (SAR). The antenna was used to localize the tumor precisely which shows the excellent functioning of the antenna and device. The proposed device is simulated by using Ansoft HFSS software and also CST Microwave studio simulator developed the breast model.
