Phased Array Synthesis Using Modified Particle Swarm Optimization

Abstract: In this paper, a linear phased array is synthesized to produce a desired far field radiation pattern with a constraint on sidelobe level and beamwidth. The amplitude of the excitation current of each individual array element is optimized to give desired sidelobe level and beamwidth. A modified particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm with a novel inertial weight variation function and modified stochastic variables is used here. The performance of the modified PSO is compared with standard PSO in terms of am… Show more

“…According to several studied the value of inertia weight w can be a constant wo=1, 0.79; [19], also wo can be linearly damped function with iterations starting at 0.9 and decreasing linearly to 0.4 at the last iteration [12], or depending on [20], wo can be exponentially decay function starting at 0.9 and decreasing to 0.4 at last iteration. After we define the required updating velocity parameters, the position matrix is updated at each iteration according to:…”

“…However, exact control of phase and magnitude of excitation current of array elements requires complex and expensive electronic circuitry [4]. In case of phased arrays, where the direction of the main beam needs to be controlled electronically in real time [7], uses of such electronic circuits are unavoidable. However, in many applications, a dynamic control of array radiation pattern is not required.…”

“…Linear array of identical radiating elements are one of the common type of antenna arrays [4,6]. Design method of linear uniformly spaced antenna arrays are widely covered in literature [5][6][7][8]. Most of these methods employ a heuristic optimization algorithm to find the phase and/or magnitude of the excitation currents of the array elements while keeping the separation between the array elements uniform.…”
