Abstract
The antennas and metasurfaces designed for biomedical applications
operate primarily in the far-field rather than the near-field. Working
in the near-field is considerably more intricate in both design and
theory. Furthermore, the proposed methodologies are unsuitable for
seamless integration with a radar system that seeks to offer an
efficient and streamlined approach to achieve heightened sensing. Our
research highlights the potential of metasurfaces in redefining
radar-based sensing. By integrating metasurface principles specifically
designed for near-field focusing into radar design, we unlock new
possibilities for high-resolution biomedical sensing with real-time
capabilities.
