Enhanced Design of UWB Antenna with Dual Tapered Conical Wave Launcher for Biomedical Application

The extensive availability of electromagnetic technology has led to increasing concerns on the possible health hazards. Meanwhile the EM interactions with biological materials have generated considerable interest in a variety of biological and medical applications. The main application of this work is to treat skin cancer using Impulse Radiating antenna because of its effective focus on the affected area only. Impulse Radiating Antenna can radiate very fast electromagnetic pulse with high field amplitude. Recent research shows that such pulse can be used to kill melanoma cells. This antenna uses Intense sub Nano second electric pulse for radiating on the skin. This way of treating cancerous cells ensure very less radiation on the normal part of our body. The design provides a new way of treating skin cancer, which assures better treatment than the rest one due to its effective focus, high gain and effectively treats deep-seated tumors. This paper shows that the enhanced gain of dual tapered arm compared to tradition arm feed arm. Simulation of designed antenna using CST Studio Suite and its observed parameters are open in this paper.
