  • Abstract
    The feasibility of medical diagnostic through Ultra Wideband technology is investigated, both from a system point of view and a component design perspective. The characteristics and the properties of the in-body UWB electromagnetic wave propagation are assessed and from them requirements on the system design are derived. Moreover, a system concept for medical diagnostic purposes based on the UWB Radar technology is shown.
