Abstract
The concept of Pareto optimality is applied to the study of choice tradeoffs between reflectivity and thickness in the design of multilayer microwave absorbers. Absorbers composed of a given number of layers of absorbing materials selected from a predefined database of available materials are considered. Three types of Pareto genetic algorithms for absorber synthesis are introduced and compared to each other, as well as to methods operating with the weighted Tchebycheff method for Pareto optimization. The Pareto genetic algorithms are applied to construct Pareto fronts for microwave absorbers with five layers of materials selected from a representative database of available materials in the 0.2-2 GHz, 2-8 GHz, and 9-11 GHz bands.
