Numerical Simulation and Experimental Validation on Focused Microwave Thermotherapy

This paper presents the results of beam-focusing of the human tissue mimic phantom using the time reversal (TR) algorithm in the developed focused microwave thermotherapy (FMT) system for the treatment of musculoskeletal disorders. The simulation and experimental verification for the possibility of beam-focusing at the target position was performed at 925 MHz frequency. It can be achieved the effective beam-focusing at the desired position of the phantom.
