Microwave-based Nondestructive Sensing Approach for Blood Type Identification

This study reports the in-vitro characterization of blood samples based on the dielectric property measurements across the microwave spectrum 2 – 67 GHz using a newly developed commercial coaxial probe kit. This is done for different ABO-Rh types of synthetic blood samples as well as authentic specimens drawn from healthy adult donors. Measured results have indicated an appreciably dielectric contrast between blood samples of various types at certain frequency regions. This phenomenon is also demonstrated by the resonant measurements on a novel developed CSRR-based biosensor in the centimeter-band using two different setups of Vector Network Analyzer and 2.45 GHz radar board.
