Title A name given to the resource Efficient Ultra Wideband Radar Based Non Invasive Early Breast Cancer Detection Subject The topic of the resource Breast phantom; Cole-Cole model; dielectric properties; early breast cancer detection; federal communication commission mask; scattering parameter; specific absorption rate; ultra wideband pulse shaper; ultra wideband radar Description An account of the resource Ultra Wideband radar systems have emerged as a good alternative for non-invasive and harmless breast cancer detection. In this paper, bistatic and monostatic radar systems are proposed, which detects the deep-rooted and smallest formation of the tumor in the breast. The source signal for transmission through the breast is a seventh derivative Gaussian Ultra Wideband pulse. This pulse is shaped using the proposed sharp transition bandpass Finite Impulse Response filter. The pulse shaper filter design has a sharp transition, hence efficient for shaping very short-duration pulses, achieving higher data rate and less interference issues. Also, the pulse tightly fits the Federal Communication Commission spectral mask, thus achieving higher spectral utilization efficiency and meeting the signal safety standards for transmission through the breast. The shaped pulse fed to the antenna of the radar system provides higher antenna radiation efficiency and radiating power due to the concentration of power in the main lobe, sidelobe suppression, and less channel loss. Tumor detection is based on the time and frequency domain analysis of the backscattered signals from the tumor. These signals have higher amplitude, higher electric field intensity variations, and an increase in the scattering parameter values due to the presence of tumor. Simulation results show significant changes in the electric field intensity for normal and malignant breast tissue for tumor sizes ranging from 4 mm to 0.5 mm. To accurately detect the location of tumor inside the breast, Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) analysis is carried out. It is observed that the energy absorption in the cancerous breast is higher than that of the normal breast, thereby aids to detect the location of the tumor accurately by identifying the coordinates of the maximum value of SAR. The results obtained with an experimental setup consisting of fabricated heterogeneous breast phantom with tumor and monostatic radar closely confirms with the simulation results. 2013 IEEE.
