Abstract :
A dual-polarized impulse radiation antenna (DP-IRA), with low profile and high gain, is presented in this paper for cerebral hemorrhage detection. To verify its detecting ability, interactions between the DP-IRA and human head models with amount-dependent bleedings are simulated. Simulation data shows that the antenna can detect cerebral hemorrhage as well as diagnose bleeding situation in a direct manner. So the antenna has great potential in future cerebral hemorrhage detection.
