Abstract
A novel highly sensitive and compact slotted microstrip antenna sensor consisting of slots with defected ground structure is designed. The substrate used in the design of antenna is FR-4 of concise dimensions 30 × 30 × 1.6 mm3 and the developed antenna resonates at 3 GHz. The human finger consisting of several layers namely bone, blood, fat and skin is modelled in the electromagnetic simulation (Computer Simulation Technology) environment resulting in finger phantom. The finger phantom is situated at different locations on proposed antenna for evaluating the concentrations of glucose from 0 to 1000 (mg/dL) and the corresponding shift in frequencies are estimated. For detection of glucose concentration in human blood, the obtained frequency shifts in the proposed work are used. In this proposed work, at the top side of proposed antenna, the finger phantom is situated, an uttermost shift in frequency of 48 MHz, sensitivity of 48 KHz/(mg/dL) and a least possible shift in frequency of 24 MHz, sensitivity of 24 KHz/(mg/dL) are obtained.
