Genetic Algorithm Based Broadband Equalizer Design With Ripple Level Control

Abstract

In this paper broadband equalizer design with ripple control via genetic algorithm has been studied. The equalizer is defined as a lossless two-port terminated by load impedance and the coefficients of its describing scattering polynomials have been optimized via genetic algorithm. During the optimization process ripple level of the transducer power gain has been controlled. An example has been given to illustrate the utilization of the proposed approach. © 2012 IEEE.
