Reliable Multi-Stage Optimization of Antennas for Multiple Performance Figures in Highly-Dimensional Parameter Spaces

Design of modern antenna structures needs to account for multiple performance figures and geometrical constraints. Fulfillment of these calls for the development of complex topologies described by a large number of parameters. EM-driven tuning of such designs is mandatory yet immensely challenging. In this letter, a new framework for multi-stage design optimization of multi-dimensional antennas with respect to several performance criteria is proposed. The approach is founded on the idea of identifying a feasible region of the search space through a series of local optimization runs with appropriate handling of individual objectives and design constraints. To facilitate local optimization, a procedure for finding a good starting point is proposed which involves sensitivity-based reduction of the problem dimensionality. For computational efficiency, the proposed design procedure is aided by surrogate modeling techniques. The proposed framework is demonstrated using a dual-band antenna with the enhanced gain. Our methodology is compared to alternative design approaches. The numerical results are validated experimentally.
