A Robust Technique Without Additional Computational Cost in Evolutionary Antenna Optimization

Evolutionary Multi-Objective Optimization Without Additional Parameters

The present-day evolutionary multi-objective optimization (EMO) algorithms had a demonstrated history of evolution over the years. The initial EMO methodologies involved additional niching parameters which made them somewhat subjective to the user. Fortunately, soon enough parameter-less EMO methodologies have been suggested thereby making the earlier EMO algorithms unpopular and obsolete. In t...

Antenna Array Optimization using Evolutionary Approaches

Antenna designers are constantly challenged with the temptation to search for optimum solutions for the design of complex electromagnetic devices. The ability of using numerical methods to accurately and efficiently characterizing the relative quality of a particular design has excited the engineers to apply stochastic global evolutionary optimizers (EO) for this objective. EO techniques have b...

Optimization of the total annual cost in a shell and tube heat exchanger by Ant colony optimization technique

This paper examines the total annual cost from economic view heat exchangers based on ant colony optimization algorithm and compared the using optimization algorithm in the design of economic optimization of shell and tube heat exchangers. A shell and tube heat exchanger optimization design approach is expanded based on the total annual cost measured that divided to area of surface and power co...

Antenna Geometry Estimation Using a Robust Multilateralization Technique

This paper describes further efforts towards antenna geometry estimation in the WPI Precision Personnel Locator system, which is under development as a portable, zero-fixedinfrastructure, and spectrally compliant RF-based system for location and tracking of personnel situated in indoor environments. The system consists of transmitters worn by individuals to be tracked, and receiver hardware whi...
