Simulation-Driven Antenna Modeling by Means of Response Features and Confined Domains of Reduced Dimensionality

In recent years, the employment of full-wave electromagnetic (EM) simulation tools has become imperative in the antenna design mainly for reliability reasons. While the CPU cost of a single simulation is rarely an issue, the computational overhead associated with EM-driven tasks that require massive EM analyses may become a serious bottleneck. A widely used approach to lessen this cost is the employment of surrogate models, especially data-driven ones: versatile and easily accessible. Yet, one of the unresolved issues remains the curse of dimensionality. Standard modeling techniques are merely capable of rendering surrogates for low-dimensional cases within narrow parameter ranges. In pursuit to overcome these limitations, a novel technique has been recently proposed, where the overall modeling process is carried out within a confined domain, set up based on performance specifications and spectral analysis of an auxiliary set of reference designs. This work offers a further development of the aforementioned method. Instead of tackling the entire antenna responses, only the selected characteristic points (relevant to the figures of interest considered in the antenna design process) are handled. This allows for achieving excellent model accuracy at a low computational cost. The proposed approach can be an attractive modeling alternative for systems with well-structured characteristics.
