UWB Microstrip Antenna Design for Microwave Imaging Systems

Öz

In this work, an ultra-wide band (UWB) microstrip antenna is designed which can be used for microwave imaging applications such as breast cancer detection. Proposed antenna is operating in between 2.01GHz to 7.64GHz with a Fractional Bandwidth (FBW) of 116%. Antenna is using low cost low profile substrate with 38 × 40mm2 dimensions and thickness of 1.6mm. This antenna can provide maximum gain of 9.4dB, which is considerably a good result for microwave imaging purpose.
