Abstract

Microstrip patch antennas with harmonic suppression are designed and optimised, using a genetic algorithm and applying a novel adaptive meshing program to generate a wire-grid simulation. A coaxially-fed air-dielectric patch antenna design with a folded patch was investigated. It was confirmed that antennas with excellent performances could be designed by this method.
