  • Abstract
    A set of antenna-optimization problems is presented that satisfies the necessary requirements to form a test suite useful for measuring and comparing the performance of different evolutionary optimization algorithms (EAs) when they are applied to solve complex electromagnetic problems. The ability of the proposed test suite to find strong and weak points of any EA is illustrated by a complete study of four broadly used evolutionary algorithms carried out with the aid of the new test functions
