Abstract :
Two new microstrip radiators for inducing local hyperthermia designed to operate at 433 MHz and 915 MHz are described. Empirical design methods and experimental results obtained with phantoms are presented. The radiators have a desired uniform radiation pattern and are well matched to the muscle tissue or a water bolus.
