This paper discusses the results of array antenna radiation pattern obtained from MATLAB and CST microwave studio to provide a basis for comparison between results. For verifying and validating the MATLAB results obtained by natural computation approach called Adaptive Social Behavior Optimization (ASBO), same parameters are used on CST microwave studio EM simulation. ASBO has applied to synthesize the radiation pattern of the linear antenna array with controlled nulls in the direction of unwanted interference sources. Each array element phase parameter has considered for controlling the shape of the pattern in order to steer the main beam in the desired direction and define null in the direction of interference. The radiation pattern of a microstrip patch antenna array resonating at 9 GHz with controlled null is synthesized using CST simulation tool. The phase parameter of each array element has been considered for controlling the shape of the pattern in order to steer the main beam in the desired direction and define null in the direction of interference. Hence the elements on CST are excited with same phase as computed by ASBO using MATLAB. The EM simulation results of CST show a close correlation with those obtained through MATLAB.
