Abstract

Linear Antenna arrays provide alternative solution to dimensional structure of Antennas such as paraboloidal cylinders, paraboloids, offset focus paraboloids etc. This paper presents the survey of various evolutionary approaches for line ar array optimization like genetic algorithm, Particle swarm optimization, Simulated Annealing, Bacteria Fo r aging and Biogeography Based Optimization. From the survey It was observed that bio geography based optimization is better for antenna geometries.
