Research and Development of a New Synthesis Technique of Microwave Active Planar Circuits
Antennas, Frequency Selective Surfaces, FSS, Optimization, Reconfigurable Structures.
The work developed in this thesis has as main objective to contribute to the development
of reconfigurable structures through the application of optimization techniques inspired
by bee swarm behavior. The main structures studied are planar microwave antennas
and frequency selective surfaces both for use in systems requiring frequency reconfiguration capability. We present new structures obtained with the classical algorithms and with the modified algorithm developed during the thesis. Simulated and measured results are obtained certifying the accuracy of the projects developed.
