Abstract

These days, breast cancer affects numerous women and has fatal conclusions if the event that it does not cure effectively. Early diagnosis is the most essential methods to distinguish and meddle with cancer tissue. Some of methods for breast cancer recognition are X-ray mammography, MRI and ultrasound. However, they have a few limitations. For instance; somewhere around 4 to 34% of all breast cancers are missed due to poor harmful/generous cancer tissue contrast. Microwave imaging to recognize breast cancer is a promising method and there are many works here. All materials have diverse permittivity and conductivity. In this work, a 3D breast structure has distinctive permittivity and conductivity is demonstrated in HFSS by utilizing Finite Element Method (FEM) to solve electromagnetic field values and a microstrip patch antenna operating at 2.45 GHz is designed and substrate material is FR4 (ɛr = 4.4 F/m). By changing the parameters of the microstrip U-shape antenna, the output power will be different. About this, distance, dimension and polarization angle of the antenna are evaluated.
