Abstract :
An optimized design of cage antenna Using FEKO and genetic algorithm (GA) is presented. The geometry of the antenna is optimized by GA to get best VSWR and gain performances over the entire 100-400MHz band. The height of the optimized geometry of the cage antenna is only 0.75m, while the diameter is only 0.15m. The antenna can work over entire 100-400MHz with the VSWR lower than 3 and the gain higher than 1.55dBi.
