UWB Rectangular Ring Microstrip Antenna with Simple Capacitive Feed for Breast Cancer Detection
Breast cancer is a second leading cause of cancer in women today after lung cancer and is the most common cancer among women according to WHO. At present X-ray Mammography is approved technique for early breast cancer detection. But this technique have up to 20% false detection rate. There will be approximately 250,000 new cases of breast cancer in India by 2015. At present, India reports around 100,000 new incidence of breast cancer. We can eliminate this false detection using Microwave imaging. Microwave imaging is defined as seeing the internal structure of an object by means of electromagnetic fields at microwave frequencies (300 MHz-10 GHz). Antenna is a key component in microwave imaging system. Microstrip antenna can become right candidate for Microwave imaging system. Because it is compact and planar but major drawback is its narrow bandwidth. But using different technique we can increase bandwidth up to 70%. Single Layer Rectangular Microstrip Antennas with simple capacitive feed, offering an impedance bandwidth up to 50% is designed in IISc., Bangalore, India 2007 1. The proposed antenna is modification of above antenna. In this antenna, we replace rectangular patch with rectangular ring patch which increases impedance bandwidth more than 66.44% having resonance frequency 6.05 GHz.
