• Abstract: Development of modern antennas is a cognitive process that intertwines experience-driven determination of topology and tuning of its parameters to fulfill the performance specifications. Alternatively, the task can be formulated as an optimization problem so as to reduce reliance of geometry selection on engineering insight. In this work, a bi-stage framework for automatic generation of antennas is considered. The method determines free-form topology through optimization of interconnections between components (so-called pixels) that constitute the radiator. Here, the process involves global optimization of connections between pixels followed by fine-tuning of the resulting topology using a surrogate-assisted local-search algorithm to fulfill the design re-quirements. The approach has been demonstrated based on two case studies concerning development of broadband and dual-band monopole antennas.

• Antenna Array Calibration Via Gaussian Process Models [0.0]
  Antenna array calibration is necessary to maintain the high fidelity of beam patterns across a wide range of advanced antenna systems. We formulate antenna calibration in an alternative way, namely as a task of functional approximation, and address it via Bayesian machine learning. Our contributions are three-fold. Firstly, we define a parameter space, that captures the underlying hardware impairments corresponding to each radiating element, their positional offsets, as well as the mutual coupling effects between antenna elements. Once deployed, the learned non-parametric models effectively serve to continuously transform the beamforming weights of the system, resulting in corrected beam patterns.
