Abstract :
In this paper, a patch resonator is proposed for non-invasive measurement of dielectric properties of biological tissues. Resonator is operating at 2.4 GHz when placed on tissue. The patch resonator is simulated in HFSS with four layered tissue mimicking material (skin, fat, blood, muscle) placed on top. The electrical properties of blood layer is decreased and the change in S parameters is tracked. Effective dielectric properties of the tissue is reconstructed from simulated S parameter response of the resonator.
