摘要

This paper deals with the optimal design of phased arrays for medical applications of microwaves, such as hyperthermia treatments and cancer imaging. To address this problem, microwave engineers have to face peculiar and novel challenges, since the region of interest is a 3-D domain in the near field of the array and consists of a highly heterogeneous and lossy medium, whose characteristics change from patient to patient. For this reason, we have to reconsider basic fundamentals about phased array design, in order to devise proper tools and criteria. In particular, we address the design of the system layout, i.e., the choice of the number and locations of the array elements, as this represents the preliminary fundamental problem to face. To this end, we first formulate the two general problems relevant to biomedical applications—the design of an array for therapeutic purposes and of an array for diagnostic/imaging goals. We then address the proper theoretical and analytic tools and methods that enable pursuit of an optimal design with respect to given constraints. Finally, we provide some examples to show how the design procedure can be carried out in practice.
