Microwave Breast Imaging System Prototype with Integrated Numerical Characterization

Figure 5

Measured and simulated magnitude and phase of incident between each of the three transmitting antennas and all receivers. Solid: measured. Dots: HFSS. The groupings from left to right are the eleven receivers of each level (middle, top, and bottom), repeated for the three transmitters (middle, top, and bottom), plotted counterclockwise when viewed from above for a given receiver level. For example, data 38 : 48 are middle receivers and top transmitter. The magnitude and phase agree best for transmitters and receivers on the same level (i.e., data 1 : 11, 50 : 60, and 98 : 108).
