DE LA ASUNCION LOPEZ, Edgardo César; ZUREK VARELA, Eduardo Enrique; RIPOLL SOLANO, Lácides Antonio  y  HERNANDEZ CANTILLO, Javier Eduardo. Genetic algorithms applied to Yagi-Uda antenna optimization. Rev. ing. univ. Medellín [online]. 2009, vol.8, n.15, pp.105-114. ISSN 1692-3324.

This paper describes an optimization process implemented using Genetic Algorithms. The initial population of the GA is composed of 128 chromosomes with 11 genes per chromosome. The chromosomes of the GA are composed by the length and separations of the elements of the Yagi-Uda antenna; the ranks of this genes where chosen by design standards for such antennas. All genes undergo a process of analysis to assess every one of the antennas of each generation of the GA to assign the fitness of the individuals. In order to verify the obtained results, various tests were made, and among them excel the construction of the optimized Yagi-Uda antenna to measure and verify it electromagnetic characteristics.

Palabras clave : Yagi-Uda Antenna; optimization; genetic algorithms.
