Area of Science:

  • Electromagnetics and Applied Physics
  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Medical Imaging Technology

Background:

  • Microwave breast imaging offers a promising alternative for cancer detection.
  • Development of efficient antennas is crucial for effective microwave imaging systems.
  • Ultrawideband (UWB) antennas provide the necessary bandwidth for high-resolution imaging.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To design and evaluate a compact planar ultrawideband (UWB) antenna for microwave breast imaging.
  • To develop and test a 16-antenna array configuration for capturing backscattering signals from breast phantoms.
  • To validate the performance of the Iteratively Corrected Delay and Sum (IC-DAS) algorithm in reconstructing tumor images.

Main Methods:

  • A compact UWB antenna with a slotted semicircular patch and trapezoidal ground was designed and optimized.
  • A 16-antenna array was configured for transmission and reception of microwave signals.
  • Breast phantoms with and without tumors were used to collect backscattering data.
  • The IC-DAS algorithm was employed for image reconstruction.

Main Results:

  • The UWB antenna achieved a wide operating bandwidth (2.30-11.00 GHz) with a maximum gain of 5.80 dBi.
  • The antenna array demonstrated good fidelity factors (82% and 81%) for different setups.
  • The IC-DAS algorithm successfully reconstructed images, enabling tumor identification in breast phantoms.
  • The system verified its imaging performance through analysis of backscattering signals.

Conclusions:

  • The developed compact UWB antenna and array system are suitable for microwave breast imaging applications.
  • The study demonstrates the feasibility of using UWB technology and the IC-DAS algorithm for non-invasive tumor detection.
  • The results highlight the potential of this approach for improving breast cancer screening.
