Abstract :
The derivation of an equivalent lumped element circuit for antenna input impedance is here carried out on the basis of measures via a fully automatic genetic algorithm. The proposed method not only recovers the values of the lumped elements but also automatically synthesises the topology of the equivalent circuit.
