摘要:The optimization of the sum and difference patterns for monopulse antennas by a hybrid real/integer-coded invasive weed optimization (IWO) is introduced in this paper. The whole array aperture is divided into several subarrays. The configuration and weight of each subarray are optimized. In order to reduce the difficulty of designing the feeding networks of the array antenna, the elements of the same subarray stay together. Since only the weight and elements number of each subarray is optimized, the number of the optimized parameters is reduced significantly which will reduce the complexity of the simulation procedure. Several numerical simulations are applied to validate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
