A novel design of hybrid fractal antenna using BFO

Abstract: This paper presents a novel design of printed hybrid fractal tree (PHFT) antenna using bacterial forging optimization (BFO) in conjunction with curve fitting technique. The antenna geometry is based on the hybrid structure obtained by integrating meander line geometry with fractal tree, whose geometrical descriptors are determined by means of BFO. The fractal shape allows the new hybrid antenna to be effectively reduced in size without significantly impairing performance. Representative results of optimized an… Show more

“…Various algorithms like particle swam optimization (PSO), bacterial foraging optimization (BFO), whale optimization, grey wolf optimization, ant lion optimization (ALO), etc. have been used to optimize the dimensions of the antenna and to achieve the required results [16][17]. In this study, the ant lion optimization has been applied on the length of the patch and width of the quarter wave matching line to obtain the required band of operation and corresponding reflection coefficient, respectively.…”
