Neural Network Characterization of Reflectarray Antennas

Neural Network Characterization of Reflectarray Antennas

An efficient artificial neural network (ANN) approach for the modeling of reflectarray elementary components is introduced to improve the numerical efficiency of the different phases of the antenna design and optimization procedure, without loss in accuracy. The comparison between the results of the...
