Since magneto dielectrics are synthesized from magnetic particles and polymer dielectrics, the dimensions of the particles and their volume fraction need to be controlled carefully to obtain the required antenna performance. In this paper, machine learning methods were used to determine the particle size and volume fraction to obtain the desired antenna properties such as gain, bandwidth, radiation efficiency, and resonant frequency.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003ESwaminathan holds the John Pippin Chair in Electromagnetics and is the director of the Interconnect and Packaging Center.
