High Order Stable Infinite Impulse Response Filter Design Using Cuckoo Search Algorithm

In this paper,an efficient technique for optimal design of digital infinite impulse response(IIR) filter with minimum passband error(ep),minimum stopband error(es),high stopband attenuation(As),and also free from limit cycle effect is proposed using cuckoo search(CS) algorithm.In the proposed method,error function,which is multi-model and non-differentiable in the heuristic surface,is constructed as the mean squared difference between the designed and desired response in frequency domain,and is optimized using CS algorithm.Computational efficiency of the proposed technique for exploration in search space is examined,and during exploration,stability of filter is maintained by considering lattice representation of the denominator polynomials,which requires less computational complexity as well as it improves the exploration ability in search space for designing higher filter taps.A comparative study of the proposed method with other algorithms is made,and the obtained results show that 90% reduction in errors is achieved using the proposed method.However,computational complexity in term of CPU time is increased as compared to other existing algorithms.
