Abstract :
In this paper a design and feed position determination for circular microstrip antenna based on neural network models are presented. Multilayer perceptron (MLP) is developed for antenna design. The physical and effective radius, as well as, directivity is obtained by MLP neural network. Radial basis function (RBF) neural network is used for feed position estimation. The obtained results are showed good matching with experimentally obtained results.
