Circuit Design Based on Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithms

Abstract:

This work investigates the application of Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithms in the field of evolutionary electronics. PSO was developed under the inspiration of behavior laws of bird flocks, fish schools and human communities. PSO achieves its optimum solution by starting from a group of random solution and then searching repeatedly. We propose the new means for designing electronic circuits and introduce the modified PSO algorithm. For the case studies this means has proved to be efficient, experiments show that we have better results.
