A Genetic and Simulated Annealing Combined Algorithm for Optimization of Wideband Antenna Matching Networks

A genetic and simulated annealing combined algorithm is presented and applied to optimize broadband matching networks for antennas. As a result, advantages of both the genetic algorithm (GA) and simulated annealing (SA) are taken. Effectiveness and efficiency of the presented combined algorithm are...
