Abstract

A procedure for low-cost multi-objective design optimization of antenna structures is discussed. The major stages of the optimization process include: (i) an initial reduction of the search space aimed at identifying its relevant subset containing the Pareto-optimal design space, (ii) constructionusing sampled coarse-discretization electromagnetic (EM) simulation dataof the response surface approximation surrogate, (iii) surrogate optimization using a multi-objective evolutionary algorithm, and (iv) the Pareto front refinement. Our optimization procedure is demonstrated through the design of a planar quasi Yagi-Uda antenna. The final set of designs representing the best available trade-offs between conflicting objectives is obtained at a computational cost corresponding to about 172 evaluations of the high-fidelity EM antenna model.
