S-band five-port ring reflectometer-probe system for in vitro breast tumor detection

A five-port ring reflectometer-probe system was developed to measure relative permittivity of normal and tumorous breast tissues in frequency range from 1.6 to 2.75 GHz. The calibration procedures of the study reflectometer and the coaxial probe were described in detail. In this study, the synthetic...
