Integrating microgenetic algorithms with TLM method for dual-band planar inverted-F antenna design

The efficient coupling between microgenetic algorithms (µGA) and the transmission line matrix method (TLM) to design two planar inverted-F antennas (PIFAs) for dual-band DCS/WLAN and GSM/UMTS standards, respectively, is presented. Measurement results of the µGA/TLM optimised designs show good agreem...

Summary:The efficient coupling between microgenetic algorithms (µGA) and the transmission line matrix method (TLM) to design two planar inverted-F antennas (PIFAs) for dual-band DCS/WLAN and GSM/UMTS standards, respectively, is presented. Measurement results of the µGA/TLM optimised designs show good agreement with numerical simulation for a GSM/UMTS antenna.
