Abstract
A compact 4 × 4 planar ultrawideband (UWB) antenna array with the total size of 44 × 52.4 mm was developed for radar-based breast cancer detection system. The center frequency and the bandwidth of the antenna were 6 and 12.5 GHz, respectively. The breast phantom materials were developed to fit the characteristics of the measured human breast tissues. A quasi-three-dimensional confocal imaging was performed using the breast phantoms. It was confirmed that the compact 4 × 4 antenna array could detect a 5 × 5 × 5-mm3 tumor phantom in an inhomogeneous structure with a glandular phantom and resolve the two separate tumor phantoms, which were located at the depth of 23 mm with the spacing of 10 mm.
