Abstract |
|
the big bang crunch algorithm optimization [15] method is used in the reduction in side lobe levels of broadside linear antenna array. In this paper optimum value of current of each antenna element is determined which produces radiation pattern with minimum side lobe level. Big bang crunch algorithm is used, which enables search in broader space along randomly generated directions to produce new generations. This improves the performance significantly to attain the maximum reduction in side lobe level with minimum function calls. By using this approach, the reduction in side lobe level occurred in the range between -30 dB to -35dB. |
