Abstract

In this paper, we design a meta‐material surface emulating a perfect magnetic conducting plane (PMC) using the hierarchical genetic algorithm (HGA). This is achieved by manipulating the unit‐cell geometry of frequency‐selective surface screens and the electrical properties of the supporting dielectric medium in the optimization process. The properties of the structure are evaluated using a method of moments (MoM)‐based electromagnetic solver. By virtue of the HGA, prior information of the number of FSS screens and dielectric layers is not required. The designed PMC is employed as a dipole‐antenna reflector for gain enhancement. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
