In this study, the optimization of the electromagnetic interference (EMI) induced by two aircraft onboard VHF-UHF transreceiver antennas is aimed. The EMI reduction is implemented by varying the antenna positions and orientations. The transreceiver antennas are modelled as single monopole antennas therefore the problem is reduced to antenna-to-antenna coupling optimization. The Method of Moments (MoM) is selected for the EMI analysis and the continuous parameter Genetic Algorithm (CPGA) is chosen for the optimization method. The results of the numerical analysis are verified by the measurement on a 1:10 scaled model in an anechoic chamber. © 2005 Elsevier GmbH. All rights reserved.
