Abstract

In this paper, Hybrid Taguchi Genetic Algorithm (HTGA) is used to minimize the side lobe level and to keep half power beam width in certain values for cylindrical conformal antenna array. The HTGA is based on Genetic Algorithm (GA) and Taguchi Algorithm (TA). Results obtained by GA, TA and HTGA are compared. The best results are also compared with the results obtained by HFSS (High Frequency Structural Simulator).
