Abstract

Space mapping (SM) technique is applied in conformal antenna design. The main idea of this technique is to map the coarse model of a planar layer structure microstip antenna to fine structure of a conformal antenna including platform through space mapping. This technique is very suitable for conformal antenna optimization where long computational time is required to achieve an accurate solution. As the convergence speed of this technique is related to the response functions, some response functions are researching for accelerating the optimization. Two examples are studied to validate the advantages of the feasible response functions for accelerating the convergence speed of SM technique.
