Johnna Powell and Anantha Chandrakasan Massachusetts Institute of Technology 50 Vassar St. Rm 38-107, Cambridge, MA 02139 johnna, [email protected] ABSTRACT This paper introduces two antenna designs for Ultra Wideband 3.1-10.6 GHz communication. The primary antenna design is an equiangular spiral slot patch antenna with an outer radius of 2.25 cm. The incorporation of a ground plane enables c...

This study presents an ultra-wideband, elliptical slot, planar monopole antenna for early breast cancer microwave imaging. The on-body antenna's operation is optimised by direct contact with the patient's skin. With a compact size of 9 × 7 mm, covers wide bandwidth from 16 to 24 GHz reflection coefficients lower than –10 dB. Besides, it also features electrode electrical impedance tomography ap...
