“…It requires specific knowledge and a lot of time [18]. The design procedure using the numerical methods (such as the method of moments, finite-difference time-domain method) is more universal, but the computation time using the numerical methods can last hours or even days [19]. Time becomes a problem especially when even approximate constructive parameters are not known and calculations have to be repeated many times.…”

Meander structures are highly relevant in the Internet-of-Things (IoT) communication systems, their miniaturization remains as one of the key design issues. Meander structures allow to decrease the size of the IoT device, while maintaining the same operating parameters of the IoT device. Meander structures can also work as the delay systems, which can be used for the delay and synchronization of signals in IoT devices. The design procedure of the meander delay systems is time-consuming and cumbersome because of the complexity of the numerical and analytical methods employed during the design process. New methods, which will accelerate the synthesis procedure of the meander delay systems, should be investigated. This is especially relevant when the procedure of synthesis must be repeated many times until the appropriate configuration of the IoT device is found. We present the procedure of synthesis of the meander delay system using the Pareto-optimal multilayer perceptron network and multiple linear regression model with the M5 descriptor. The prediction results are compared with results, which were obtained using the commercial Sonnet software package and with the results of physical experiment. The difference between the experimentally achieved and predicted results did not exceed 1.53 %. Moreover, the prediction of parameters of the meander delay system allowed to speed up the procedure of synthesis multiple times from hours to only 2.3 s.INDEX TERMS Antenna arrays, antenna measurements, artificial neural networks, Internet of Things.
