In this paper, Enhanced Practical Swarm Optimization (EPSO) algorithm is proposed to be applied for pattern synthesis of linear arrays. Updating formulas of global best particle position and velocity are modified to improve the convergence accuracy of classical Practical Swarm Optimization. The deve...
