The optimal design objectives of the microwave absorbing (MA) materials are high absorption, wide bandwidth, light weight and thin thickness. However, it is difficult for single-layer MA materials to meet all of these requirements. Constructing multi-layer structure absorbing coating is an important means to improve performance of MA materials. The carbon-based nanocomposites are excellent MA materials. In this paper, genetic algorithm (GA) and artificial bee colony algorithm (ABC) are used to optimize the design of multi-layer materials. We selected ten kinds of materials to construct the multi-layer absorbing material and optimize the performance. Two algorithms were applied to optimize the two-layer MA material with a total thickness of 3 mm, and it was found that the optimal bandwidth was 8.12 GHz and reflectivity was −53.4 dB. When three layers of MA material with the same thickness are optimized, the ultra-wide bandwidth was 10.6 GHz and ultra-high reflectivity was −84.86 dB. The bandwidth and reflectivity of the optimized material are better than the single-layer material without optimization. Comparing the GA and the ABC algorithm, the ABC algorithm can obtain the optimal solution in the shortest time and highest efficiency. At present, no such results have been reported.

A novel simple approach for designing single-layer printed log-periodic dipole array (PLPDA) antenna fed by conductor-backed coplanar waveguide (CBCPW) is presented. The PLPDA antenna has the merits of wide bandwidth, low profile, and stable radiation pattern, which should be fed by the balanced line. The balanced line, created by the geometric features of the CBCPW, provides a balun with a considerably wide bandwidth with low profile, broad bandwidth, low insertion loss, and so forth. The prototype of the proposed CBCPW-fed printed log-periodic array at Ka band is designed and fabricated; the measured data are in good agreement with the simulated results.
