Hybridized germ swarm optimization technique to calculate resonant frequency of RMA

Soft computing applications to antenna design are becoming the potential solution provider as reflected from the number of papers published in various journals. Resonant frequency of rectangular microstrip antenna having various substrate thicknesses are generally calculated using the standard expressions presented in literatures. In this paper, hybridizing bacterial foraging optimization technique in conjunction with particle swarm optimization developed as, "Hybridized germ swarm optimization technique (HGSOT)rdquo and applied on the published expressions, to calculate accurately the desired resonant frequency of rectangular microstrip antenna of any dimension and of any substrate thickness.
