Abstract :
This paper presents the application of non-linear neural optimization networks to the analysis of arbitrarily shaped microstrip patch antennas with a very general bianisotropic grounded slab. A neural network approach is presented to solve in a new and efficient way the integral equation which describes, from the electromagnetic point of view the planar integrated structure
