The antenna's performances are investigated and evaluated using an ITO transparent conductor in both frequency and time domain. The proposed antenna achieves the wide bandwidth (BW) of 3.26-23.37 GHz, more than 65 radiation efficiency for most of the working BW, and maximum radiation efficiency of 90 percent at 15 GHz. Besides, it depicts a stable radiation pattern at most of the operating band and a maximum gain of 3.87 dBi. The good agreement between the simulation and measurement results, time-domain considerations, and the reconstructed image of the tumor makes the antenna capable of working in many applications, especially for breast and skin cancer detection. © 2020 IEEE. date: 2020 publisher: Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85099530728&doi=10.1109%2fISNCC49221.2020.9297255&partnerID=40&md5=a22c9836bc32fdea3720835af14d1411 id_number: 10.1109/ISNCC49221.2020.9297255 full_text_status: none publication: 2020 International Symposium on Networks, Computers and Communications, ISNCC 2020 refereed: TRUE isbn: 9781728156286 citation: Saeidi, T. and Mahmood, S.N. and Juraiza Ishak, A. and Alani, S. and Ali, S.M. and Ismail, I. and Alhawari, A.R.H.
