We propose, for the first time, neural space-mapping (NSM) optimization for electromagnetic-based design. NSM optimization exploits our space-mapping (SM)-based neuromodeling techniques to efficiently approximate the mapping. A novel procedure that does not require troublesome parameter extraction to predict the next point is proposed. The initial mapping is established by performing upfront fine-model analyses at a reduced number of base points. Coarse-model sensitivities are exploited to select those base points. Huber optimization is used to train, without testing points, simple SM-based neuromodels at each NSM iteration. The technique is illustrated by a high-temperature superconducting quarter-wave parallel coupled-line microstrip filter and a bandstop microstrip filter with quarter-wave resonant open stubs.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
