(inductive slot). (phantom box).. 3 (0, 250, 500 mg/dl), (S 11). 100 Q, 900 MHz 250 mg/dl 9 MHz. Abstract In this paper, the resonator with a parallel plate capacitor is newly proposed around sub-microwave frequency band and applied to earlobe for non-invasive glucose monitoring the human biological tissue. The capacitor including the earlobe as dielectric material is connected to inductive slot in the ground plane of the microstrip line. Based on the simulation, one port resonator circuit is designed and fabricated as a prototype. Three step glucose concentration levels(0, 250, 500 mg/dl) was tested, and its reflection coefficients(s 11) were measured. Owing to high Q resonator more than 100, resonant frequency shift of about 9 MHz per glucose level of 250 mg/dl has been successfully measured. This proves that the proposed sensor is applicable to a blood glucose sensor. Key words: Slot Resonator, Glucose, Sensor, Parallel Plate Capacitor. 서론 (near field), [1] [4]. 0 500 mg/dl.,.., Q(quality factor) (Division of Information and Communication Engineering, Sungkyul University) Manuscript received February 15, 2017 ; Revised March 15, 2017 ; Accepted April 6, 2017.
