A genetic algorithm (GA) has been developed for designing single‐shaped reflector antennas for the synthesis of shaped contour beams. The graphical processing technique is used in order to obtain the antenna radiation patterns very efficiently. Results comparing with the classical conjugate gradient are included to provide validation. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Microwave Opt Technol Lett 27: 358–361, 2000.
