Abstract
In this paper, a Particle Swarm Optimization with Constriction Factor and Inertia Weight Approach with Wavelet Mutation (PSOCFIWA-WM) is applied to the process of synthesizing three-ring Concentric Circular Antenna Arrays (CCAA) without and with central element feeding, focused on maximum sidelobe level reductions. Sidelobe level (SLL) is a critical radiation pattern parameter in the task of reducing background noise and interference in the most recent wireless communication systems. To improve the radiation pattern with maximum SLL reduction, an optimum set of antenna element parameters as excitation weights and radii of the rings are to be developed. The extensive computational results show that the method of PSOCFIWA-WM provides a maximum sidelobe level reduction of 96.06% with respect to the uniformly excited case for the particular CCAA containing 4, 6, and 8 numbers of elements in the three successive rings along with central element feeding.
