摘要
An H-shaped conformal microstrip antenna array mounted on an irregular curved surface is optimized and designed in this paper and the radiation pattern of this conformal array is synthesized using the Self-adaptive Hybrid Genetic Algorithms (SHGA). The optimized azimuth radiation pattern of the conformal array is almost omnidirectional and the elevation radiation pattern is concentrated in the horizontal direction. Finally, the optimized results are analyzed in view of the phasic error. The results show that the proposed procedure is an effective and feasible method for designing the conformal antenna array on an irregular curved surface.
