Design and Optimization of a Multiband SIW Antenna Based on Complex-Geometry Resonators Using the PSO Optimization Algorithm for X and Ku Band Applications
摘要
This paper presents the design and PSO-based optimization of a multiband substrate-integrated waveguide (SIW) antenna incorporating three geometrically complex resonators. The optimized structure exhibits five narrowband resonances at 8.4, 10.14, 10.9, 11.8, and 13.3 GHz, in the X-band and the lower part of the Ku-band. Each band maintains a narrow bandwidth of approximately 200 MHz, enabling reduced interference, enhanced spectral selectivity, and improved system efficiency. The antenna reaches a peak gain of 6,4 dBi. Full-wave electromagnetic simulations validate their suitability for compact and selective wireless, satellite, and radar applications.
