Synthesis of Thinned Planar Concentric Circular Antenna Arrays Using a Modified Artificial Bee Colony Algorithm

<div>Radiation pattern for the MABC optimized concentric circular antenna arrays with fixed interelement arc spacing (<i>d</i><sub>c</sub> = 0.5801<i>λ</i>) compared with the results of the fully populated array and the radiation pattern obtained by the ABC algorithm (<i>d</i><sub>c</sub> = 0.5<i>λ</i>) in the first case.</div>
