Abstract

In this paper based on intelligent water drops algorithm (IWD), comprehensively nonlinear analysis of nonlinearly loaded wire scatterers are carried out. The analyses involve two stages. First, the problem is modeled as a nonlinear multi-port equivalent circuit and it is then reformulated into an optimization problem which is solved by the IWD. The simulation results are compared with harmonic balance (HB), arithmetic operator method (AOM), approximate methods and experiment. Analysis of the problem under strongly nonlinear loads, presence of lossy ground, multi-port structures, and multi-ton excitations are included to cover all the complex aspects. In one hand, the proposed modeling approach is in excellent agreement with other conventional techniques. On the other hand, the run time is considerably reduced.
