This thesis presents the implementation, validation, and extensive experimental testing of a custom-dielectric monopole printed antenna system for microwave brain stroke imaging applications. The antenna consists of two stacked flexible thin bricks, one acting as a matching medium with the head and the other as the substrate layer between the antenna itself and a ground plane. The antennas are designed as wideband antennas, with a 400 MHz bandwidth at -10 dB and a central frequency of 1 GHz. They are tested by performing a singular antenna check to validate their reflection coefficients and a two antenna check to validate their TX and RX coefficients.
