New York: John Wiley & Sons, 1999. Comprehensive highly acclaimed text is the first book devoted exclusively to the application of genetic algorithms to electromagnetic device design. Contains detailed coverage of a revolutionary technique for overcoming problems in electromagnetic design Genetic algorithms are stochastic search procedures modeled on the Darwinian concepts of natural selection and evolution. The machinery of genetic algorithms utilizes an optimization methodology that allows a global search of the cost surface via statistical random processes dictated by the Darwinian evolutionary concept. These easily programmed and readily implemented procedures robustly locate extrema of highly multimodal functions and therefore are particularly well suited to finding solutions to a broad range of electromagnetic optimization problems. Text describes numerous applications of genetic algorithms to the design and optimization of various low- and high-frequency electromagnetic components. 480 pgs.… Read More
