Multi-Layer RF Tissue Phantoms for Mimicking a Human Core

This work presents the design recipe, fabrication process and characterization of tissue-simulating materials, configured as a physical model to mimic the electrical and some physical properties of an abdominal cavity. The complete three-layer design is called the human core model (HCM) see Fig. 1. To our knowledge, presented is the first hybrid skin-muscle phantom developed to mimic the electrical properties of the intervening tissue layers of an abdominal cavity within the frequency band of 1 GHz - 2 GHz, a band of interest for human body sensing due to its deep detection depth.
