This article describes a method of designing a reconfigurable dual-beam linear antenna array using bees algorithm (BA). The BA is an optimization algorithm inspired by the behavior of the honey bees to find the optimal way of harvesting food resources around the hive. The proposed method is very simple and can be used directly in practice to synthesize multiple beam antenna arrays with digital attenuators and digital phase shifters. A good agreement between the desired pattern and the synthesized pattern using BA is obtained. (C) 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
