title = "A wideband axially symmetric antenna design fabricated with additive and subtractive methods",
abstract = "An antenna design technique that makes use of axial symmetry to realize efficient wideband or multiband operation is presented. The antenna is created by optimizing a two-dimensional profile using a global optimization strategy such as the Covariance Matrix Adaptation Evolutionary Strategy (CMA-ES) and sweeping the curve around an axis to form a solid body of revolution. A method-of-moments simulation tool is used to characterize the candidate antenna solutions according to the user-defined cost function. An ultra-wideband example antenna is optimized here to illustrate the design capability. The design is fabricated using 3D printing and lathe-based manufacturing methods and tested to verify predicted performance.",
