In this paper, design of an aperture-coupled microstrip antenna (ACMSA) using differential evolution algorithm (DE) is described. The classical transmission line model for microstrip antenna is used to determine fitness function for DE and computed results are compared with the results obtained using particle swarm optimization (PSO) and binary coded genetic

The aim of this paper is to explore the binary sequences with high discrimination using Particle Swarm Optimization with Cauchy Mutation (PSOCM) technique. The cross-ambiguity function method is used to detect the stationary and moving targets in various target detection scenarios. The contour plots of the cross-ambiguity function are computed as a function of

This paper presents an algorithm of particle swarm optimization with reduction for global optimization problems. Particle swarm optimization is an algorithm which refers to the collective motion such as birds or fishes, and a multi-point search algorithm which finds a best solution using multiple particles. Particle swarm optimization is so flexible that it can adapt to a number of optimization...

Standard particle swarm optimization is easy to fall into local optimum and has the problem of low precision. To solve these problems, the paper proposes an effective approach, called particle swarm optimization based on multiple swarms and opposition-based learning, which divides swarm into two subswarms. The 1st sub-swarm employs PSO evolution model in order to hold the self-learning ability;...

So far various methods for optimization presented and one of most popular of them are optimization algorithms based on swarm intelligence and also one of most successful of them is Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO). Prior some efforts by applying fuzzy logic for improving defects of PSO such as trapping in local optimums and early convergence has been done. Moreover to overcome the problem of i...

in this paper, we propose a novel algorithm to enhance the noisy speech in the framework of dual-channel speech enhancement. the new method is a hybrid optimization algorithm, which employs the  combination of  the  conventional θ-pso and the shuffled sub-swarms particle optimization (sspso) technique. it is known that the θ-pso algorithm has better optimization performance than standard pso al...
