Development of a Time Domain Microwave System for Medical Diagnostics
Artikel i vetenskaplig tidskrift, 2014

In this paper, a time-domain system dedicated to medical diagnostics has been designed, a prototype has been built and its performance has been evaluated. Measurements show that the system has a 3-dB bandwith of about 3.5 GHz and a signal to noise ratio over 40 dB in the frequency range about 800 MHz to 3.8 GHz. The system has been used to perform a microwave tomographic image reconstruction test. The same target was reconstructed based on data measured with a network analyzer. A comparison between the images shows very small differences, and proves the functionality of the time domain system.
