Abstract EN
Ultrawide band (UWB) microwave imaging is a promising method for the detection of early stage breast cancer, based on the large contrast in electrical parameters between malignant tumour tissue and the surrounding normal breast-tissue.
In this paper, the detection and imaging of a malignant tumour are performed through a tomographic based microwave system and signal processing.
Simulations of the proposed system are performed and postimage processing is presented.
Signal processing involves the extraction of tumour information from background information and then image reconstruction through the confocal method delay-and-sum algorithms.
Ultimately, the revision of time-delay and the superposition of more tumour signals are applied to improve accuracy.
