Abstract :
An optimisation procedure based on the genetic algorithm is applied to design resistively loaded wire antennas. The broadband characteristic of the antenna is realised through a maximisation of the fidelity factor directly in the time domain. The performance characteristics of the resulting antenna are presented and contrasted with those of the Wu-King design
