Abstract
Central Force Optimization (CFO) is a new determinstic multi-dimensional search metaheuristic based on the metaphor of gravitational kinematics. CFO is a simple technique and is still in its infancy. To enhance its global search ability while keeping its simplicity, a new selection part is introduced in this paper. CFO is briefly presented and applied in the design of linear antenna array and the modified CFO is applied in the design of circular array. The results are compared with those of well known optimization techniques.
