Optimum Plannar Antenna Design Based on an Integration of IE3D Commercial Code and Optimization Algorithms摘要
The optimum planar antenna design utilizing a simulation tool based an integration of IE3D commercial code as an electromagnetic computational engine and an add-on optimization algorithm is proposed in this paper. The work is motivated by the popularity of planar antennas and the need of customized designs in industrial applications, which can be effectively achieved by using simulation tools. Currently available commercial codes are reliable and relatively accurate in the analysis with more efforts tending to enhance the efficiency. The quality of the antenna design will mainly rely on an effective optimization algorithm that can be and should be developed independently according to engineers’ own need since the variables and cost functions for optimization can be flexibly selected. The integration of existing analysis codes, as mentioned above, and self-developed algorithms will be most effective for an engineer in the customized antenna design. The concepts and strategies are addressed with numerical examples to validate.
