OPTIMIZATION OF A NOVEL SHAPE MICRO STRIP PATCH ANTENNA USING GENETIC ALGORITHM

In this paper Genetic Algorithm based optimization technique has been utilized in HFSS software for optimization of the patch antenna dimensions in order to achieve better return loss and height directivity. Micro - strip patch antenna is one of the important elements in modern w ireless communication systems and hence its design optimization is an important aspect for improving the overall performance of the system. The microstrip patch antenna is designed to operate in S band with the frequency of 2.4GHz and various important per formance metrics of the patch antenna are analyzed .
