DESIGN OPTIMIZATION OF A BOW-TIE ANTENNA FOR 2.45 GHz RFID READERS USING A HYBRID BSO-NM ALGORITHM

Recently the Bacterial foraging optimization algorithm (BFA) has attracted a lot of attention as a high-performance optimizer. This paper presents a hybrid approach involving Bacterial Swarm Optimization (BSO) and Nelder-Mead (NM) algorithm. The proposed
