Yes / An ultra-wideband microstrip antenna design is
considered with respect to applications in breast cancer
detection. The underlying design concept is based on ground
penetrating radar (GPR). Simulated and measured prototype
performance show excellent performance in the input impedance
and radiation pattern over the target range from 4 GHz to 8
GHz. The 4 GHz to 8GHz frequency band for microwave
imaging perform better in comparison with other microwave
frequencies. The antenna also shows a reasonable uniform
radiation performance in the broadside direction which
contributes to the reduction of clutter levels, thus aiding the reconstruction quality of the final image.
