Abstract
This paper studies metallic microstrip antennas with air as a substrate in the UHF band, patterned after space-filling, self-avoiding, and self-similar (FASS) Peano curves. Our novel study is based on context-free grammar and genetic programming as computing tools to unravel the role of geometry on both; the Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (VSWR[Formula: see text]) and frequency resonance patterns for Peano antennas. We use in our approach the numeric method of moments (MoM) implemented in Matlab 2021a to solve the corresponding Maxwell equations. Novel equations for the patterns of both features (resonance frequencies and frequencies such that the VSWR[Formula: see text]) are provided as functions of the characteristic length L. Antennas spanning a [Formula: see text] area ([Formula: see text]), feeding points set at seven places, and three widths of the metallic strip are introduced as instances of our approach. Finally, a Python 3.7 application is constructed to facilitate the extension and use of our results.
