“…1 shows the Hilbert fractal and its iterations. The applications of fractal geometries are for the miniaturisation, multi-banding and increase of bandwidth of antennas [13][14][15][16] and used in microwave filters too [17,18]. The physical mechanism of miniaturisation by the application of fractals is the effective increase of current lengths.…”

A novel miniaturised frequency selective surface (FSS) unit cell is proposed based on the Hilbert fractal and 2.5‐dimensional (2.5‐D) metallic loop. For the increase of current path, both sides of substrate are used which are connected together by four vias. The dimension of FSS unit cell is obtained as 0.041λ0 × 0.041λ0 at the frequency of 2.47 GHz. The transmission coefficient is insensitive and independent of angle and polarisation of incident wave. A prototype model of the proposed FSS is fabricated and measured for the proof of concept. It is shown that it achieves better miniaturisation relative to the FSS reported in the literature.

“…In Vivaldi with a microstrip feed, the microstrip line is printed on a substrate and the tapered slotline is etched on the ground plane below the microstrip. A few parameters are of great importance for satisfactory wideband performance: The length and the width of the tapered slot line: to achieve the traveling wave mode of radiation, the slot length and width generally needs to be greater than and, respectively (Figures 2-4) [9].…”

Motivation: Breast cancer is a major health problem globally for women causing an appreciable percentage of the yearly female death. Microwave imaging is a promising method in biomedical applications such as breast cancer detection due to its good penetration property, non-ionizing and non-invasive nature which has the potential to be a complementary modality to standard mammography. In this paper, An UWB Microstrip-fed Vivaldi antenna for microwave imaging systems aimed for an early breast cancer detection is developed.
