Study of resonant microstrip antennas on artificial neural networks
Abstract
This paper presents a new model based on the backpropagation multilayered perception network to find accurately the bandwidth of both electrically thin and thick rectangular microstrip antennas. This proposed neural model does not require complicated Green's function methods and integral transformation techniques. The method can be used for a wide range of substrate thickness and permittivities and is useful for the computer-aided design of microstrip antennas. The results obtained by using this new method are in conformity with those reported elsewhere. This method may find wide applications in high-frequency printed antennas, especially at the millimeter-wave frequency range.
