Abstract
A fast and accurate design procedure of a computationally expensive microwave circuit has been presented step-by-step and experimentally validated on the basis of a compact rat-race coupler (RRC) comprising slow-wave resonant structures (SWRSs). The final compact RRC solution has been obtained by means of a sequential optimization scheme exploiting the implicit space mapping (ISM) algorithm. A well-suited surrogate optimization starting point as well as a considerable limitation of the surrogate optimization variables contribute significantly to the numerical efficiency of the method proposed. The final design, offering 85% size reduction together with a satisfactory performance, has been obtained with only a handful of EM simulations. The experimental validation of the method has been successfully conducted
