Abstract
Given a non-optimal Yagi-Uda antenna, this paper presents a technique to improve simultaneously and monotonically all its conflicting specifications. This is possible using the multiobjective optimization technique called Dominating Cone Line Search. Results for a 6 elements antenna, considering 3 conflicting specifications in 3 different frequencies, thus, a 9 objectives optimization problem, is presented.
