Abstract

This paper demonstrates the use of the genetic algorithm to simplify both the final symbolic transfer functions and the initial equivalent circuits so that meaningful and understandable results can be obtained. The resulting simplified circuits are only as complicated as necessary to give the required accuracy in the results, which will also help in giving a better graphical insight into the circuits under consideration. This highly efficient algorithm has also been integrated into a symbolic circuit analysis package
