A novel gain enhanced Vivaldi antenna for a breast phantom measurement system
ABSTRACT In this study, a breast phantom measurement system based on radar-based microwave imaging technique is proposed. For this purpose, a small-size Vivaldi antenna with high gain and ultra-wide band is designed. The antenna bandwidth is in the range of 3–10.6 GHz, and the maximum realized gain is 8.5 dB. The size of the antenna is 36 × 36 mm2, and FR4 was used as dielectric material. Bandwidth and gain are increased by using edge slots. After the antenna hardware had been manufactured with PCB printed circuit technology, a mechanism was developed to measure breast phantom. After the measurement process is completed, a computer program converts the collected signals into images. For the testing of the system, canola oil was used as a phantom and the object in the oil was successfully imaged.
期刊介绍:
Publishing eight times per year, Electromagnetics offers refereed papers that span the entire broad field of electromagnetics and serves as an exceptional reference source of permanent archival value. Included in this wide ranging scope of materials are developments in electromagnetic theory, high frequency techniques, antennas and randomes, arrays, numerical techniques, scattering and diffraction, materials, and printed circuits. The journal also serves as a forum for deliberations on innovations in the field. Additionally, special issues give more in-depth coverage to topics of immediate importance.
All submitted manuscripts are subject to initial appraisal by the Editor, and, if found suitable for further consideration, to peer review by independent, anonymous expert referees. Submissions can be made via email or postal mail.
