Abstract

In this paper, multi-objective particle swarm optimization (MOPSO) and continuous excitation distribution in the range of 0 to 2 are used for correction of the failed element in 5 × 5 planar antenna array for ISM band application by substituting role of nonoperational elements to remaining operational elements. It was found that up to 72% element failure at the various position of the array can be effectively recovered for desired sidelobe level and beamwidth first null (FNBW) which is better than earlier reported limit. The outcome excitation values from MOPSO have been verified with simulated results and found that the performance of optimized excitation values is almost matching with the simulated results.
