Tolerance-Aware Multi-Objective Optimization of Antennas by Means of Feature-Based Regression Surrogates
Abstrakt
Assessing the immunity of antenna design to fabrication tolerances is an important consideration, especially when the manufacturing process has not been predetermined. At the same time, the antenna parameter tuning should be oriented toward improving the performance figures pertinent to both electrical (e.g., input matching) and field properties (e.g., axial ratio bandwidth) as much as possible. Identification of available trade-offs between the robustness and nominal performance can be realized through multi-objective optimization (MO), which is an intricate and computationally expensive task. This paper proposes a novel technique for fast tolerance-aware MO of antenna structures. The key component of the presented methodology is a feature-based regression surrogate, established based on the characteristic points of antenna responses extracted from its electromagnetic (EM)-simulation data, and employed for a rapid estimation of the maximum allowed input tolerance levels for given values of performance parameters of interest. Subsequent trade-off designs are generated by tuning the antenna parameters for various assumed values of relevant figures of interest (e.g., the operating bandwidth). As demonstrated using three microstrip antennas, a rendition of performance-robustness trade-off designs can be accomplished at the cost of just about forty (for six-parameter antenna) to about eighty (for fourteen-parameter antenna) per design EM analyses of the respective structure. Reliability of the approach is validated through direct EM-driven Monte Carlo analysis at the selected designs.
