Development of Microwave sensor and Android Application for monitoringlong bone defects

Sammanfattning: Fractures of the long bones are one of the most common injuries. Long bone are always at risk for fractures and require careful treatment to avoid the human disabilities. Microwave technology is using to development of biomedical sensors for detecting and monitoring bone defects. Microwave are electromagnetic (EM) radiation with frequencies between 300MHz and 300 GHz. The microwave technology is used in wireless networking and communication systems, wireless security systems, remote sensing and medical application. The main purpose of this thesis is to investigate rectangular microstrip patch antenna for monitoring long bone defects. A narrow band microwave antenna will be designed, then validate the antenna using measurement. Design an application for mobile, where physicians can easily see the patient’s measurement in a graph form,healing process and physicians can analyze the patient’s health condition.
