Abstract

In this paper a new design is proposed in microstrip antenna family. In this paper, a review design of microstrip antenna design using particle swarm optimization (PSO) and advanced particle swarm optimization (APSO) has been presented which optimizes the parameters and both results are compared. This technique helps antenna engineers to design, analyze, and simulate antenna efficiently and effectively. An advanced PSO driven antenna has been developed to calculate resonant frequency of slit-cut stacked equilateral triangular microstrip antenna. The paper presents simplicity, accuracy and comparison of result between PSO and APSO.
