ANALYSIS OF MICROSTRIP PATCH ANTENNA FOR BREAST CANCER DETECTION

A Microstrip antenna in its simplest configuration consists of a radiating patch on one side of a dielectric substrate, which has a ground plane on the other side. The patch conductors usually made of copper or gold can be virtually assumed to be of any shape .However , conventional shapes are normally used to simplify analysis and performance prediction. The radiating elements and the feed lines are usually photo etched on the dielectric substrate. The radiating patch may be square, rectangular, circular, ring, elliptical or any other configuration .Square ,rectangular and circular shapes are the most common because of ease of analysis and fabrication. The antenna parameters like Return loss, VSWR, Radiation pattern are verify and stimulated on CST Microwave Studio.
