Free-Form Filters Designed Using Binary Optimization Algorithm
Xuexuan Ruan, Chi Hou Chan
Abstract
The conventional design of filters requires numerous simulations, taking a substantial amount of time and computational resources and requiring extensive expertise. This article presents a new method to design filters using an optimization algorithm, which can use the fitness function to evaluate the filters autonomously. Experimental results from designing two common filters, including a microstrip filter and a waveguide filter, demonstrate that the proposed approach produces satisfactory results.
