Abstract

Purpose

The purpose of this paper is to introduce to scientific community a new optimization technique and its application to the radiation synthesis case.

Design/methodology/approach

The immunity tactic is a new powerful optimization tool inspired by immune system. It was used with success to achieve the conformal antenna radiation synthesis in an acceptable processing time.

Findings

Radiation synthesis of conformal antenna arrays based on immunity tactic generates very good results compared with other optimization methods. The comparison is very satisfactory as regards accuracy and processing time.

Research limitations/implications

The improvement of convergence and accuracy will be done certainly by use of other variants of the technique or combination with others.

Originality/value

The paper exposes with details a new optimization technique based on immune system and its behavior. The results, for the special case of conformal antenna arrays radiation synthesis, are very satisfactory and very encouraging. The impact of the new technique will be, without doubt, positive on optimization field.
