Abstract
This chapter deals with the designing of an antenna using computational intelligence algorithm (i.e., ANN). An artificial neural network (ANNs) based on back propagation network (BPN) is demonstrated for the designing of an antenna. Initially, the ANN is trained with an adequate number of samples. Once the ANN is trained, it can be used to get antenna parameters corresponding to specific antenna dimensions. The antenna parameters obtained using ANN is compared with the results taken by Ansoft HFSS.
