Abstract

This paper presents an automated design methodology for electromagnetic- based (EM-based) optimization of an array antenna by applying bottom-up approach. Firstly, one single antenna is optimized then bottom-up optimization (BUO) method has been implemented by increasing the number of single antennas, sequentially. The proposed method leads to automatically find an optimal array by setting the distance between single antennas. The optimization method is performed in an automated environment with the help of an electronic design automation (EDA) tool and a numerical analyzer. The results of the final design have been compared by means of two EDA tools such as ADS and HFSS. The optimized array antenna works in the frequency band from 12.9 GHz to 14.3 GHz. It offers a linear gain performance higher than 7.5 dB. The simulations in both ADS and HFSS tools illustrate a good match in S-parameter and gain simulation output results.
