Near-field Radio Frequency Planar Strip Array Antenna for NMR Imaging
A device for detecting electromagnetic signals, more specifically, the magnetic resonance signals from excited nuclei as well as related apparatuses, systems and methods is provided. This detection device includes a planar strip array antenna including a plurality, and in more particular embodiments, a multiplicity of parallel conductors (e.g., 4, 16, 32 or more of conductors). The length of the conductors is adjusted to substantially reduce the coupling of a signal in one conductor to an adjacent conductor(s). This detection device also is configured so that the electromagnetic wave on each conductor is one of a standing wave or a traveling wave. Patent (Set) 6,771,070
