The aim of this paper is to present a new method for generating self-supporting structures of a linear wire antenna. Antenna structure resembles monopole and consists of several sections connected in series. This type of antenna is suitable for marine radiocommunication systems.
The generation method proposed in this paper is called TGA (tuned genetic algorithm) and it is based on two algorithms. First one is a typical genetic algorithm, while the second one allows us to modify antenna structure founded by the first algorithm. Mentioned modification involves rotating antenna sections. In this way, antenna parameters such as VSWR can be improved. What is more, with TGA, antenna susceptibility to changes in its geometry can be determined, which is helpful in antenna manufacture. To predict the performance of antennas, we used FEKO.
