| Abstract | The multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO) capabilities of electronically steerable passive array radiator (ESPAR) antennas in the beamspace (BS) domain have designated them a strong candidate for BS-MIMO implementations using transceivers with a single-radio frequency front-end. The core functionality of the ESPAR is based on the multiplexing of information symbols in the BS domain, using orthogonal basis patterns. The radiated pattern of the antenna is produced as the linear combination of the basis patterns weighted by the information symbols to be transmitted. The adequate approximation of the desired radiation pattern produced by the antenna is of high importance in order to retain the orthogonality between the basis patterns and the corresponding information streams. The beamforming in ESPAR antennas is achieved by applying the appropriate set of loads at the parasitic elements. Nevertheless, because of the non-linear relationship between the radiation pattern and the loads of antenna elements, the calculation of these loads is not a trivial task. This paper presents a novel genetic algorithm (GA), designed to calculate the loading values of the parasitic elements of an ESPAR used by BS-MIMO systems in realistic channel environments. The performance evaluation of the proposed GA reveals a robust and valuable optimisation tool even for demanding applications. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
