Research and Development

Hutt Systems together with IBE Systems Corporation, is currently investigating the use of non-linear search methods - both direct-search and gradient based methods - as applied to the optimization of antenna arrays. Specifically, we are focused on using a novel algorithm termed Empirical Optimization to develop methods to optimize an array in a specific environment.

An updated version of "On the Empirical Optimization of Antenna Arrays", originally published in the IEEE Antennas and Propagation Magazine, 47, 2, April 2005, pp. 58-67, can be found here.

Our submission to the IEEE 2008 Sarnoff Symposium is: Antenna Array Synthesis Using Derivative, Non-Derivative and Random Search Optimization.
