Abstract
This work represents a numerical investigation into the improvement of artificial neural network detection of breast cancer using a planar broadband antenna and a three-region breast model. Modified Fourpoint antennas are used, which are capable of producing various wave polarizations. The effect of wave polarization on statistical detection will be investigated in this paper.
