Abstract: Antenna array optimization is a major research problem in the field of electromagnetic and antenna engineering. The optimization typically involves in handling several radiation parameters like Sidelobe level (SL) and beamwidth (BW). In this paper, the linear antenna array (LAA) configuration is considered with symmetrical distribution of excitation and special distribution. The objective of the design problem considered involves in generating optimized patterns in terms of SLL and BW and check the robustness of the social group optimization algorithm (SGOA). The analysis of the design problem is carried out in terms of radiation pattern plots. The simulation is carried out in Matlab.
Keyword: Antenna Array, Optimization, SGOA.
