Abstract :
In order to improve non-invasive measurement microwave radiometry in medical and industrial applications, we propose a new generation of sensors realized from a metallic sheet laid on a dielectric substrate. It allows the realization of sensors of small sizes and very light weight for medical applications such as neonate´s temperature control.
