Abstract
For multi-objective design of multi-parameter antenna structures, optimization efficiency and computational cost are two major concerns. In this paper, an improved multi-objective evolutionary algorithm based on decomposition (MOEA/D) is proposed to improve global optimization capability by diversity detection operation and mixed population update operation. Further, in order to reduce the computational cost, a hybrid optimization strategy integrating a dynamically updatable surrogate-assisted model into the improved MOEA/D is proposed. The numerical results of test functions show that our algorithm outperforms original MOEA/D, modified MOEA/D (M-MOEA/D), and nondominated sorting genetic algorithm II (NGSA-II) in terms of diversity. Experimental validation of Pareto-optimal planar miniaturized multiband antenna designs is also provided, showing excellent convergence and considerable computational savings compared to those previously published approaches.
