imaging. The antenna is designed assuming that it will be embedded in breast tissues rather
than air. By using a microstrip tapered slot with a fork-shaped feeding structure, the
designed antenna has achieved a good matching performance at 2 to 8 GHz. The total size
of the antenna is only 0.13 λ× 0.13 λ at the lowest operation frequency 2 GHz. The designed
antenna also shows good near-field radiation characteristics. Time domain response of a …
