Ultra-wideband active array imaging for biomedical diagnostics

Abstract

Ultra-wideband active array imaging has proven extremely valuable for biomedical diagnostics. At the same time, the underlying technologies have achieved a high degree of maturity. Across institutions, we have merged our expertise in M-sequence radar systems, antennas, low-noise and high-power circuitry, to devise an UWB MIMO radar system for breast tumour localisation. Recent progress in UWB imaging and hardware for active antenna arrays is presented.
