Abstract
This article describes the application of the optimal transfer function neural network methodology for fast and accurate function approximation of Q‐integrals, that appears in directivity expressions of circular‐shape antennas, such as loop, microstrip patch, and aperture in an infinite ground plane. These directivity expressions were revisited and linked in terms of Q‐type power‐radiation integrals. For each directivity approach using optimal neural networks–closed‐form expressions, series of Bessel functions, and adaptive Lobatto integration, the numerical results are presented and discussed in terms of accuracy and computational cost. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
