    Data Packet Transmission through Fat Tissue for Wireless Intra-Body Networks2017In: IEEE Journal of Electromagnetics, RF and Microwaves in Medicine and Biology, ISSN 2469-7249, Vol. 1, no 2, p. 43-51Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    This work explores high data rate microwave communication through fat tissue in order to address the wide bandwidth requirements of intra-body area networks. We have designed and carried out experiments on an IEEE 802.15.4 based WBAN prototype by measuring the performance of the fat tissue channel in terms of data packet reception with respect to tissue length and power transmission. This paper proposes and demonstrates a high data rate communication channel through fat tissue using phantom and ex-vivo environments. Here, we achieve a data packet reception of approximately 96 % in both environments. The results also show that the received signal strength drops by ~1 dBm per 10 mm in phantom and ~2 dBm per 10 mm in ex-vivo. The phantom and ex-vivo experimentations validated our approach for high data rate communication through fat tissue for intrabody network applications. The proposed method opens up new opportunities for further research in fat channel communication. This study will contribute to the successful development of high bandwidth wireless intra-body networks that support high data rate implanted, ingested, injected, or worn devices

    Human fat tissue: A microwave communication channel2017In: Proc. 1st MTT-S International Microwave Bio Conference, IEEE, 2017Conference paper (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    In this paper, we present an approach for communication through human body tissue in the R-band frequency range. This study examines the ranges of microwave frequencies suitable for intra-body communication. The human body tissues are characterized with respect to their transmission properties using simulation modeling and phantom measurements. The variations in signal coupling with respect to different tissue thicknesses are studied. The simulation and phantom measurement results show that electromagnetic communication in the fat layer is viable with attenuation of approximately 2 dB per 20 mm.

    Microwave Phantoms For Craniotomy Follow-Up Probe Development2014In: 2014 IEEE CONFERENCE ON ANTENNA MEASUREMENTS & APPLICATIONS (CAMA), 2014Conference paper (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    A novel phantom for skull implant diagnostics is presented in this paper. Specially designed three layer phantom is designed for osseointegration analysis after craniotomy using 2.4 GHz microwave probe. The phantom represents skin, skull and brain, and defects are made in the skull with the dielectric profile variation of realistic implants. The extreme dielectric constant variation of implant and bone gives a high degree of discrimination in resonant frequency. The presented craniotomy phantom is very useful for designing antennas for monitoring skull healing.

    Relative permittivity measurements of Et-OH and Mt-OH mixtures for calibration standards in 1-15 GHz range2014In: Electronics Letters, ISSN 0013-5194, E-ISSN 1350-911X, Vol. 50, no 5, p. 358-359Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    In open-ended coaxial dielectric characterisation techniques, intermediate liquid standards between air and water are necessary for precise dielectric measurements of biological samples. Calibration standards with dielectric permittivities much different from those of the measured samples will produce unreliable results. Different intermediate calibration standards are prepared and measurement results are presented. The aim is to obtain various permittivity values between 10 and 80 by diluting methanol and ethanol with distilled water. This technique can also be used for assessing the purity of alcohols.

    60 GHz compact broadband antenna arrays with wide-angle beam steering2019In: The Journal of Engineering, ISSN 1872-3284, E-ISSN 2051-3305, no 8, p. 5407-5414Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    Highly integrated multilayered printed circuit board-based patch antenna arrays are proposed in this study for 60 GHz wireless communications. Electromagnetic coupling between two stacked patches is used to achieve the broadband performance. Different structures of single element antennas, two-element antenna arrays and four-element antenna arrays are presented. The two compact four-element antenna arrays show < -10 dB impedance bandwidth of 13 and 14.6% with 12 dBi peak gain. The arrays have the 3 dB gain bandwidth of 9 and 13%. A single column, four-element sub-array is used to design 4 x 16 antenna array. This array delivers 20.8 dBi peak gain with 13% impedance and gain bandwidth. Furthermore, a two-element series fed array is used to realise a 2 x 16 phased antenna array. This array is fed through a 16 x channel radio frequency IC to achieve the beam steering in +/- 50 degrees range.

    Reduction of the coupling to external sources and modes of propagation by a nearly confocal resonator2007In: IEEE transactions on microwave theory and techniques, ISSN 0018-9480, E-ISSN 1557-9670, Vol. 55, no 10, p. 2257-2261Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    This paper presents a numerical and experimental study of a nearly confocal resonator with spherical mirrors at 12 GHz. The geometry was chosen in order to have a large quality factor for the diffraction losses, and thereby a weak coupling to external parasitic TE and TM modes, that propagate in a pipe on which the resonator may be installed. In turn, this allows a significant improvement of its signal-to-noise ratio, e.g., when used as a beam monitor.

    Printed slot planar inverted cone antenna for ultrawideband applications2008In: IEEE Antennas and Wireless Propagation Letters, ISSN 1536-1225, E-ISSN 1548-5757, Vol. 7, p. 18-21Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    A novel ultrawideband (UWB) printed wide-slot antenna is presented. The design is based on the planar inverted cone antenna (PICA), introduced by Suh. The presented design comprises PICA-like structures, etched from a double-layer substrate. Compared to the original PICA, it is lower in profile, more compact and maintains comparable performance. A prototype integrated in a printed circuit board and fed by a microstrip line is fabricated and measured. The results show that the proposed antenna provides at least 13:1 impedance bandwidth at 10-dB return loss.

    T-matched dipole antenna integrated in electrically small body-worn wireless sensor node2009In: IEE Proceedings - Microwaves Antennas and Propagation, ISSN 1350-2417, E-ISSN 1359-706X, Vol. 3, no 5, p. 774-781Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    A 2.4 GHz antenna for an electrically small body-worn sensor node is   presented. Usually, unbalanced antennas are used in such applications. Implementing a balanced antenna in a small node deployed on the body is problematic from the points of view of both design and   characterisation. A solution using a T-matched dipole integrated in the   node housing is presented. Techniques for characterisation both in free space and on the body are described. Besides antenna port impedance and radiation efficiency, radiated power and radiation patterns of the active antenna fed by a transceiver in a fully functional sensor node are measured. The benefits and drawbacks of the chosen antenna design and characterisation techniques are discussed.

    Switched beam antenna based on RF MEMS SPDT switch on quartz substrate2009In: IEEE Antennas and Wireless Propagation Letters, ISSN 1536-1225, E-ISSN 1548-5757, Vol. 8, p. 383-386Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    This letter demonstrates a 20-GHz radio frequency  microelectromechanical system (RF MEMS)-based electrically switchable   antenna on a quartz substrate. Two quasi-Yagi antenna elements are   monolithically integrated with a single-pole double-throw (SPDT) MEMS   switch router network on a 21 mm x 8 mm chip. Electrical beam steering   between two opposite directions is achieved using capacitive MEMS SPDT  switches in the router. Port impedance and radiation patterns are studied numerically and experimentally. Measured results show that the   switched beam antenna features a 27% impedance bandwidth (S-11 = -10   dB), a gain of 4.6 dBi, and a front-to-back ratio of 14 dB at 20 GHz   when the control voltage is applied to one of the switch pairs of the SPDT switch.

    Foldable and stretchable liquid metal planar inverted cone antenna2009In: IEEE Transactions on Antennas and Propagation, ISSN 0018-926X, E-ISSN 1558-2221, Vol. 57, no 12, p. 3765-3771Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    A mechanically flexible planar inverted cone antenna (PICA) for   ultrawideband (UWB) applications is presented. It can be both folded   and stretched significantly without permanent damage or loss of   electrical functionality. The antenna is manufactured with a process in   which conductors are realized by injecting room temperature liquid   metal alloy into micro-structured channels in an elastic dielectric   material. The elastic dielectric material together with the liquid   metal enables bending with a very small radius, twisting, and   stretching along any direction. Port impedance and radiation   characteristics of the non-stretched and stretched antenna are studied   in simulations and experiments. The presented antenna has a return loss   better than 10 dB within 3-11 GHz and a radiation efficiency of > 70%   over 3-10 GHz, also when stretched. Tests verify that stretching up to   40% is possible with maintained electrical performance. The presented   antenna is useful for example for body-worn antennas and in   applications in harsh environments where mechanical flexibility helps   improve durability.

    Compact Reflective Microstrip Phase Shifter for Traveling Wave Antenna Applications2006In: IEEE Microwave and Wireless Components Letters, ISSN 1531-1309, E-ISSN 1558-1764, Vol. 16, no 7, p. 431-433Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    A varactor diode based microstrip phase shifter for 5.8 GHz is presented. It is designed for use in microstrip traveling Wave antennas where there is a strict limitation on the available space for the phase shifters. To meet all requirements, a reflective type phase shifter is chosen. Such a phase shifter includes a hybrid coupler. A compact branch line coupler is designed to make the phase shifter fit between the radiating elements in the antenna, while maintaining sufficient electrical performance. Phase shifters are designed with different types of stubs connecting the diodes to ground. A phase tuning range of 621 is measured for a phase shifter with parallel open stubs, and 92 degrees with shorted stubs. Insertion loss is in both cases less than 0.6 dB. A complete five-element array antenna is built and characterized. Measurements show beam scanning angles within 32 degrees from broadside.

    Millimeter wave silicon micromachined waveguide probe as an aid for skin diagnosis - results of measurements on phantom material with varied water content2014In: Skin research and technology, ISSN 0909-752X, E-ISSN 1600-0846, Vol. 20, no 1, p. 116-123Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    Background

    More than 2 million cases of skin cancer are diagnosed annually in the United States, which makes it the most common form of cancer in that country. Early detection of cancer usually results in less extensive treatment and better outcome for the patient. Millimeter wave silicon micromachined waveguide probe is foreseen as an aid for skin diagnosis, which is currently based on visual inspection followed by biopsy, in cases where the macroscopical picture raises suspicion of malignancy.

    Aims

    Demonstration of the discrimination potential of tissues of different water content using a novel micromachined silicon waveguide probe. Secondarily, the silicon probe miniaturization till an inspection area of 600 x 200 m2, representing a drastic reduction by 96.3% of the probing area, in comparison with a conventional WR-10 waveguide. The high planar resolution is required for histology and early-state skin-cancer detection.

    Material and methods

    To evaluate the probe three phantoms with different water contents, i.e. 50%, 75% and 95%, mimicking dielectric properties of human skin were characterized in the frequency range of 95-105GHz. The complex permittivity values of the skin are obtained from the variation in frequency and amplitude of the reflection coefficient (S11), measured with a Vector Network Analyzer (VNA), by comparison with finite elements simulations of the measurement set-up, using the commercially available software, HFSS. The expected frequency variation is calculated with HFSS and is based on extrapolated complex permittivities, using one relaxation Debye model from permittivity measurements obtained using the Agilent probe.

    Results

    Millimeter wave reflection measurements were performed using the probe in the frequency range of 95-105GHz with three phantoms materials and air. Intermediate measurement results are in good agreement with HFSS simulations, based on the extrapolated complex permittivity. The resonance frequency lowers, from the idle situation when it is probing air, respectively by 0.7, 1.2 and 4.26GHz when a phantom material of 50%, 75% and 95% water content is measured.

    Discussion

    The results of the measurements in our laboratory set-up with three different phantoms indicate that the probe may be able to discriminate between normal and pathological skin tissue, improving the spatial resolution in histology and on skin measurements, due to the highly reduced area of probing.

    Conclusion

    The probe has the potential to discriminate between normal and pathological skin tissue. Further, improved information, compared to the optical histological inspection can be obtained, i.e. the complex permittivity characterization is obtained with a high resolution, due to the highly reduced measurement area of the probe tip.

    A silicon micromachined waveguide on-chip sensor for J-band (220-325 GHz) is presented. The sensor is based on a micromachined cavity resonator provided with an aperture in the top side of a hollow waveguide for sensing purposes. The waveguide is realized by microfabrication in a silicon wafer, gold metallized and assembled by thermocompression bonding. The sensor is used for measuring the complex relative permittivity of different materials. Preliminary measurements of several dielectric materials are performed, demonstrating the potential of the sensor and methodology.

    A compact 10 kW solid-state RF power amplifier at 352 MHz2017In: Journal of Physics, Conference Series, ISSN 1742-6588, E-ISSN 1742-6596, Vol. 874, article id 012093Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    A compact 10 kW RF power amplifier at 352 MHz was developed at FREIA for the European Spallation Source, ESS. The specifications of ESS for the conception of amplifiers are related to its pulsed operation: 3.5 ms pulse length and a duty cycle of 5%. The realized amplifier is composed of eight kilowatt level modules, combined using a planar Gysel 8-way combiner. The combiner has a low insertion loss of only 0.2 dB, measured at 10 kW peak power. Each module is built around a commercially available LDMOS transistor in a single-ended architecture. During the final tests, a total output peak power of 10.5 kW was measured.

    Wide Band On-Chip Slot Antenna with Back-Side Etched Trench for W-band Sensing Applications2013In: 2013 7th European Conference on Antennas and Propagation (EuCAP), 2013, p. 1576-1579Conference paper (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    This paper presents the design and characterization of a highly integrated, wideband on-chip radiometer, composed of a slot antenna, RF-MEMS Dicke Switch, LNA and a wideband power detector. The highly integrated single-chip RF front-end is dedicated for broadband sensing up to 110 GHz. Both antenna and radiometer are fabricated in a 0.25 mu m SiGe BiCMOS process. The antenna design takes benefit of the back-side etched trench, offered by the technology. This is used to reduce losses due to the presence of the low resistivity silicon substrate. Additionally, the trench is specially shaped, as to improve the wideband matching of the antenna. The on-chip slot antenna design covers a wide bandwidth (70-110 GHz) with 0 dBi gain and 64% efficiency, both simulated at 94 GHz. The measured bandwidth spans 85 to 105 GHz. The W-band SiGe detector circuit has close to 20 GHz of operational bandwidth (S-11 <=-10 dB at 75-92 GHz) and presents a responsivity of 3-5kV/W (NEP=10-16 pW/Hz(1/2)) at 83-94 GHz.

    Antennas on Paper Using Ink-Jet Printing of Nano-Silver Particles for Wireless Sensor Networks in Train Environment2016In: Microwave and optical technology letters (Print), ISSN 0895-2477, E-ISSN 1098-2760, Vol. 58, no 4, p. 754-759Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    This paper presents the design, manufacturing and measurements of antennas on paper, realized using ink-jetprinting of conductive inks based on nano-silver particles (nSPs). The extraction of the substrate characteristicssuch as the dielectric constant and dielectric loss is performed using a printed ring resonator technique. Thecharacterization of the nSPs conductive inks assesses different parameters as sintering time and temperature.Two antennas are realized corresponding to the most common needs for Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) inTrains Environment. The first one is a patch antenna characterized by a broadside radiation pattern and suitedfor operation on metallic structures. The second one is a quasi-yagi antenna, with an end fire radiation patternand higher directivity, without requiring a metallic ground plane. Both antennas present a good matching (S11 < -20 dB and S11 < -30 dB, respectively) and acceptable efficiency (55 % and 45 %, respectively) for the papersubstrate used at the center frequency of 2.4 GHz, corresponding to the first channel of the IEEE 802.15.4 band.
