Abstract

A new method powered by an artificial neural network (ANN) is studied for resonant-mode recognitions of a rectangular dielectric resonator antenna (DRA). Different rectangular DRAs were simulated with ANSYS HFSS to generate a large dataset for training the model. Their resonance frequencies, dimensions, and 3-D electric fields are input to the ANN. The output end is a 12-element array representing the corresponding probabilities of 12 different resonant modes. Using this trained ANN model, the mode recognition accuracy can reach 96.74%. Apart from identifying the resonant modes, our proposed approach can suggest how to modify a rectangular DRA to improve the purity of a resonant mode for better antenna performance.
