A new UWB link set-up for breast tumor detection

A conformal ultra wide band(UWB) antenna with a back reflector has been used as a main sensor of a short distance link for breast tumor detection. A two sets of conformal antenna act as a UWB link by emitting a Rayleigh pulse through the breast tissue model and after receiving the pulse by other conformal antenna we observe that the received pulse for tumor diameter size more than 6mm has been changed in with tumor in compared to without tumor. The conformal antenna is an UWB antenna with high efficient band characteristic which is presented in my previous paper [1]. The simulation results show this system can use as a first choice for prototyping a portable low cost tumor detector.
