Abstract
This paper presents the synthesis and optimization of printed circular antenna array using the Cuckoo Search Algorithm (CSA). The CSA is a simple and effective global optimization algorithm which can be used to solve linear and non-linear problems. It has been applied to solve a wide variety of optimization problems. In our case, it is used to find the optimum weights of amplitudes and phases of complex feeding currents of a uniform printed circular antenna array. The goal to be achieved is a directional radiation pattern. To study the effect of these optimizations, a Gaussian centered at 90° is considered in our simulations. The obtained results are promising in terms of reduced Side Lobe Level (SLL) and directional factor array.
