Abstract
In this paper, a design method for the infinite impulse response (IIR) filters using the particle swarm optimization (PSO) is developed. It is well-known that the updating in the PSO tends to stagnate around local minimums due to a strong search directivity. Recently, the asynchronous digenetic PSO with nonlinear dissipative term (N-AD-PSO) has been proposed as a purpose for a diverse search. Therefore, it can be expected that the stagnation can be avoided by the N-AD-PSO. However, there is no report that the N-AD-PSO has been applied to any realistic problems. In this paper, the N-AD-PSO is applied for the IIR filter design. Several examples are shown to clarify the effectiveness and the drawback of the proposed method.
