This paper describes a new method for the synthesis of planar antenna arrays using fuzzy genetic algorithms (FGAs) by optimizing phase excitation coefficients to best meet a desired radiation pattern. We present the application of a rigorous optimization technique based on fuzzy genetic algorithms (FGAs), the optimizing algorithm is obtained by adjusting control parameters of a standard version of genetic algorithm (SGAs) using a fuzzy controller (FLC) depending on the best individual fitness and the population diversity measurements (PDM). The presented optimization algorithms were previously checked on specific mathematical test function and show their superior capabilities with respect to the standard version (SGAs). A planar array with rectangular cells using a probe feed is considered. Included example using FGA demonstrates the good agreement between the desired and calculated radiation patterns than those obtained by a SGA.
