A novel planar type antenna printed on a high permittivity Rogers’ substrate is proposed for early stage microwave breast cancer detection. The design is based on a p-shaped wide-slot structure with 50Ω microstrip feeding circuit to eliminate losses of transmission.The design parameters are optimi...
