Abstract :
A hybrid method based on a combination of artificial neural network (ANN) and fuzzy inference system (FIS) is presented to calculate simultaneously the resonant frequencies of various microstrip antennas (MSAs) of regular geometries. The ANN is trained with the Bayesian regulation algorithm. An algorithm that integrates least square method and backpropagation algorithm is used to identify the parameters of FIS. The resonant frequency results of the proposed hybrid method for the rectangular, circular, and triangular MSAs are in very good agreement with the experimental results available in the literature
