The SRR is designed on the top layer of a substrate and another mirrored SRR is duplicated in the ground plane of the substrate. The two SRRs are electrically connected to each other to realize closed-loop structures inside the substrate, which results in the engineered structured split-ring resonator (SSRR). It is shown that the frequency-variation sensitivity in this approach of RF/microwave sensor is significantly increased by using the proposed SSRR by more than 200% in relation to conventional counterparts. The experimental results confirm a sensitivity enhancement by a ratio of 2.2:1 with regard to a sensor with among the highest sensitivities ever reported for high-permittivity lossy-material characterization.

However, the further development of this technology is hindered by factors such as large volumes of data, long observation periods, and data variability. To deal with this challenge, a dynamic human EM model composed of customized time-varying EM materials is proposed to simulate the periodic characteristics of human cardiopulmonary motions and obtain physiological signals caused by the movements. The EM problem is subsequently addressed by employing the Time-Domain Finite Integration Technique (TDFIT), so that the EM scattering properties associated with human cardiopulmonary movements can be accurately analyzed. To validate the effectiveness of the proposed human EM model, we process the simulated human physiological signals for respiration and heartbeat rate estimation, with the error less than 4% and 8%, respectively. Furthermore, measured experiments are conducted to collected actual human vital-sign signals for comparison. Good agreement between the measured and simulated results demonstrates that the proposed human EM model is capable of accurately simulating the periodic cardiopulmonary motions and thus providing simulated physiological measurements for preliminary validation of vital sign sensing algorithms.","PeriodicalId":29955,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Journal of Electromagnetics RF and Microwaves in Medicine and Biology","volume":"9 2","pages":"240-250"},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2024-12-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144117265","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We introduce an aperture for high-speed microscope-based imaging inside the waveguide and use simulations to assess the aperture' s impact on power absorption homogeneity and dosage level in tissue samples positioned at the site of the aperture. We consider both transparent, non-conductive borosilicate and semi-transparent, conductive indium tin oxide-coated glass plates covering the aperture. Our simulation results indicate a borosilicate covering provides optimal power absorption homogeneity when the tissue sample is smaller in diameter than the aperture. Analysis of the simulation results enabled us to construct an optimized TEM cell with a borosilicate-glass-covered aperture and experimentally verify that it maximizes dosage in the tissue sample. This modified TEM cell is expected to be an essential component in an experimental platform for observing and recording the macroscopic, dynamic thermoelastic expansion of tissue induced by pulsed microwave exposure.","PeriodicalId":29955,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Journal of Electromagnetics RF and Microwaves in Medicine and Biology","volume":"9 3","pages":"278-284"},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2024-11-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144904667","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The proposed intra-ocular (IO) antenna is based on a self-tuned meandered structure operating in the 2.4 GHz ISM band. A mimicking eye phantom model is developed using a non-ionic chemical compound with dielectric properties equivalent to the human eye to facilitate various measurements in a realistic environment. The proposed IO antenna is placed inside the eye phantom (vitreous humor) model to evaluate its performance for efficient wireless data telemetry application. The measurements of S-parameters were observed to exhibit a substantial correlation with the simulated results. The measured impedance bandwidth of the proposed IO antenna at 2.4 GHz is 1.2 GHz. The efficacy of the proposed IO antenna is validated through specific absorption rate (SAR) and link budget analysis.

Nonetheless, the challenge lies in establishing a universal objective metric to assess the reliability of these methods. Current evaluation practices often rely on a single geometric metric, which presents inherent constraints. Consequently, the evaluations of results generated by deep learning methods may not always reflect clinicians’ insights and judgments. To overcome this, a local assessment metric incorporating the following three geometric dimensions is proposed: the overlap between the detected anomaly and the actual lesion, the proximity of their boundaries, and the proportionality of the lesion sizes determined by the algorithm versus the actual lesion. This approach to evaluation ensures that the resulting metric's score is in line with professional medical diagnostics. The presented results on head imaging using five deep learning algorithms confirm the significant advantages of the proposed metric, validating its effectiveness in providing objective evaluation of various algorithms in medical electromagnetic imaging. This objective metric is poised to guide future algorithm development to ensure a reliable assessment of their capability in abnormality detection and diagnosis.","PeriodicalId":29955,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Journal of Electromagnetics RF and Microwaves in Medicine and Biology","volume":"9 2","pages":"229-239"},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2024-11-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144117170","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Integrating continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) with insulin pumps offers several advantages. However, current CGM systems lack accuracy and have high costs. To overcome these challenges, a CGM system requires sensor with enhanced sensitivity and low cost. In this study, we develop a planar microwave resonator-based sensor for sensitive glucose detection in human serum and whole blood. We track the variation in the transmission coefficient (<inline-formula><tex-math>$s_{21}$</tex-math></inline-formula>) to deduce changes in glucose concentration. Utilizing combinations of complementary split ring resonators (CSRRs) and complementary electric-LC (CELC) structures, the sensor achieves remarkable sensitivity, notably 37.3 mdB/(mg/dL) for glucose in human serum and 1.557 mdB/(mg/dL) for glucose in whole blood. We also evaluate other performance metrics, linearity (<inline-formula><tex-math>$R^{2} = 0.985$</tex-math></inline-formula> for serum and <inline-formula><tex-math>$R^{2} = 0.963$</tex-math></inline-formula> for whole blood), and limit of detection (LOD) of 477.75 μg/dL for serum and 53.84 mg/dL for whole blood.

Our flexible glucose sensor shows an order of magnitude better performance than our rigid sensor.","PeriodicalId":29955,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Journal of Electromagnetics RF and Microwaves in Medicine and Biology","volume":"9 2","pages":"221-228"},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2024-10-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144117266","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Fungal tissues are a biodegradable material that can be cultivated in mass quantities; potentially making them sustainable materials for biological sensors or as a communication medium. Because the interactions of fungal tissues with communications signals are not thoroughly explored, a baseline assessment of the signal transmission capabilities of mat forming filamentous fungus, <italic>Curvularia lunata</i> (<italic>C. lunata</i>) was performed. In this paper, the band-pass characteristics of <italic>C. lunata</i> were assessed through a frequency sweep from 1 Hz–5 MHz. The potential data transmission rates through a raw bit error rate analysis using a pseudorandom bit sequence between 1–1,000 kbps were evaluated. The passband for the tissue was between 1–500 kHz, characterizing it as a low-pass filter. Bit streams below 10 kbps had an error rate of <10%>500 kbps. The results suggest that this fungal tissue could serve as a low-speed data transmission medium specifically for low-pass signals related to general human health such as ECG, EEG, EMG signals as well as temperature and glucose monitoring. While more research is necessary to understand the morphological and species-specific impacts on signal propagation between different fungi, tissues from the fungus <italic>C. lunata</i> and those with similar properties could potentially serve as a component in low-frequency biosensors and signal transmission.","PeriodicalId":29955,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Journal of Electromagnetics RF and Microwaves in Medicine and Biology","volume":"9 2","pages":"206-213"},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2024-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=10720524","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144117314","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
