Abstract :Salp Swarm Algorithm insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(SSA); is used to design an optimal non uniform circular antenna arrays. Salp Swarm Algorithm which mimics the swarming behavior of salps in oceans is a nature-inspired optimization method. As it is simple and easy to apply, it has been applied to many different problems in the literature. SSA method optimally determined the positions and amplitudes of the circular antenna array elements to obtain radiation patterns with a low maximum sidelobe level insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(MSL); and narrow half power beam width insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(HPBW);. Different sizes of antennas with 8, 10 and 12 elements are discussed to demonstrate the capability of the SSA algorithm. The results of MSL and HPBW obtained by SSA for the synthesis of circular antenna arrays are better than other compared optimization methods.Keywords : Salp swarm algorithm, synthesis of antenna array, circular arrays
