Abstract :
In this work, a matching transmission line for a 1:4 power splitter in the UHF band is designed using modified genetic algorithms (GA). Some viewpoints regarding an improvement of the continuous genetic algorithm as well as the conventional genetic algorithm, namely the discrete genetic algorithm, is presented. Several different techniques are presented for improving the discrete/continuous genetic algorithm.
