Summary:
This paper develops right/left handed transmission lines consisting of arbitrarily-shaped conductor elements, which are designed by a genetic algorithm. In the present design method, we choose the dispersion characteristics as a fitness function. A design example is demonstrated, and its effectiveness is proved from comparison of transmission characteristics between the calculated and the measured results.
