Abstract :
Full wave analysis of cylindrical posts in rectangular waveguide for antenna networks is in this paper replaced with a properly trained artificial neural network. The network is able to give an accurate description of the post behaviour at a given frequency in real time, whereas the full wave simulator would take several minutes. This will be of great importance in synthesis problem.
