Abstract
Simulated annealing and genetic algorithms are used for finding optimum excitations for patterns with null-filling. These methods have the advantage that the optimum aperture distribution with a minimal variation between excitations of adjacent elements is found without searching the entire solution space. A comparison between the performance of both methods shows that genetic algorithms are faster than simulated annealing, for this problem
