Channel-ranked beamformer for the early detection of breast cancer
(EMW Publishing, 2010-01-01)Confocal Microwave Imaging (CMI) for the early detection of breast cancer is based on several assumptions regarding the dielectric properties of normal and malignant breast tissue. One of these assumptions is that the ... -
Data independent radar beamforming algorithms for breast cancer detection
(EMW Publishing, 2010-01-01)Ultra wideband (UWB) Microwave imaging is one of the most promising emerging imaging technologies for breast cancer detection, and is based on the dielectric contrast between normal and cancerous tissues at microwave ... -
Effects of fibroglandular tissue distribution on data-independent beamforming algorithms
(EMW Publishing, 2009-01-01)The effects of the fibroglandular tissue distribution of the breast on data-independent microwave imaging algorithms are investigated in this paper. A data-independent beamformer is a beamformer whose weights do not depend ... -
Investigation of classifiers for early-stage breast cancer based on radar target signatures
(EMW Publishing, 2010-01-01)Ultra Wideband (UWB) radar has been extensively investigated as a means of detecting early-stage breast cancer. The basis for this imaging modality is the dielectric contrast between normal and cancerous breast tissue at ... -
Performance and robustness of a multistatic mist beamforming algorithm for breast cancer detection
(EMW Publishing, 2010-01-01)Ultra-Wideband (UWB) radar is one of the most promising emerging technologies for the early detection of breast cancer, and the development of robust beamforming algorithms for imaging has been the subject of a significant ...
