In this paper time modulated nine-ring concentric circular antenna array (TMCCAA) using fitness based novel hybrid adaptive differential evolution with particle swarm optimization (ADEPSO) has been studied. ADEPSO is hybrid of fitness based adaptive differential evolution and particle swarm optimization (PSO). Differential evolution is a simple and robust evolutionary algorithm but sometimes cause

In this paper, an array antenna with asymmetric antenna fed network is presented. Total size of the proposed array antenna (with 2 × 2 elements) is 90 × 90 mm and distance between elements (fed by fed) is ?/2 (? = wavelength in free space). The proposed antenna is fed by coaxial cable that isolated input impedance from impedance of the array antenna feed network. The measured impedance bandwidth o

In this paper, a compact, dual-band patch antenna is proposed over Minkowski fractal defected ground structure (DGS) for bandwidth enhancement of global positioning system (GPS) applications. The proposed design combines the truncated dual L-shaped slits cut on diagonal corners of radiating patch and fractal defect on the metallic ground plane. This concept shifts the frequencies to lower bands wi
