摘要
Breast cancer affects many women all over the globe and means for early detection are necessary for fast and effective treatment. Mammography, which is currently the most popular method of breast screening, has some limitations and microwave imaging seems to offer a good alternative. In this paper, a study of patch antenna array for breast cancer detection is presented. The results show that the proposed antenna's design is capable of detecting the breast tumor with much improved characteristics compared to the other designs available in the literature. The capabilities and limitations of this antenna for detecting tumor models are investigated through simulations and its potential for detecting tumors in the breast is highlighted
