Summary: | Diabetes affects hundreds of millions of people
globally, and is a leading cause of death and disability
worldwide. Patients must regularly monitor their blood glucose
concentration to manage the disease. A non-invasive way of
glucose monitoring using biosensor has emerged as an
alternative technique. This work describes a contemporary
approach of using patch antenna sensor in estimating the
glucose level in blood. Focus of this work is to perform the
simulation of sensor design using finite element analysis
software, CST Microwave Studio. The geometry of sensors have
been simulated where the results show the optimal design of
feedline length was 11.25 mm at 1.98 GHz. The optimal design
was then simulated in COMSOL Multiphysics for evaluating
frequency shift in different medium permittivity of air, water
and blood. The increase of permittivity will result in decrease of
resonance frequency. |
