N2 - This work presents a custom method for the design of 3D meander-line antennas with arbitrary geometries. This technique, used in conjunction with multi-objective optimization and 3D printing, enables the creation of antennas with unintuitive geometries which have enhanced performance over traditional designs. As an example, we employ this method to design two quadrifilar helix antenna (QHAs). One of the antennas has a dual-band behavior with different radiation characteristics in each band. The second antenna has wide bandwidth, high broadside gain, and compact size.
