✦ Synopsis

Abstract

A tapered slot antenna to be used in ultra wideband microwave imaging systems aimed for early breast cancer detection is presented. A synthetic array is designed to operate across the ultra wideband frequency band in the air. The mutual coupling effects between the antennas have been investigated to verify the feasibility of the antenna for medical imaging applications. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
