Abstract :
In this paper, we study the use of ultra-wideband (UWB) system for early breast cancer detection. Images are formed using a number of advanced imaging algorithms, and the effectiveness of the different algorithms are presented and compared. In addition, the use of multiple input multiple output (MIMO) systems are studied and the experiments results are presented.
