Abstract :
A patch antenna with parasitic PEC wall for the minor cardiac rhythm sensor is discussed in the paper. Better bandwidth performance and stability of the resonance frequency distinct the antenna from a conventional patch. The sensor is a part of a system for searching people under rocks. Principles of construction of the system, based on measuring the Doppler effect, are shown.
