Generalized methodology of second level for network optimization

The optimization of analog networks is formulated on the basis of the optimum control theory. A special control vector is defined to redistribute the compute expensive between a network analysis and a parametric optimization. This redistribution permits the minimization of a computer time. The problem of the minimal-time network design can be formulated in this case as a classical problem of the optimal control for some functional minimization. The principal difference between the new approach and before elaborated generalized methodology is presented. This difference is based on a higher level of the problem generalization. In this case the structural basis of different design strategies is more complete and this circumstance gives possibility to obtain a great value of computer time gain. Numerical results demonstrate the efficiency and perspective of the proposed approach.
