Complex Synthesis of Antenna Structures through Evolutionary-Optimization Techniques

In this paper, three antenna problems concerned with both the synthesis and the control (i.e., a real-time synthesis) are formulated and solved by using innovative and ad-hoc versions of evolutionary optimization techniques. In order to assess the effectiveness of the proposed techniques, some representative results are compared with those obtained with standard versions of optimizers or state-of-the-art deterministic approaches.
