Enhancing Blood Glucose Monitoring Through Integrated Defected Ground Structure and Radio Frequency Techniques

The prevalence of diabetes globally has highlighted the need for continuous and non-invasive blood glucose monitoring methods. Traditional invasive techniques, such as finger pricking, are not only painful but also pose risks of infection and skin irritation. This paper presents the design and development of an intelligent non-invasive blood glucose monitoring system utilizing a Defected Ground Structure (DGS) with Radio Frequency (RF) waves. The proposed system aims to offer a low-cost, reliable, and user-friendly alternative for glucose monitoring, improving the quality of life for diabetic patients. The system's effectiveness has been demonstrated through simulations and prototype development, showing promising results for accurate glucose measurement without tissue damage.
