Abstract :
Network synthesis involves the selection of a suitable network topology and the choice of component values. Genetic algorithms can be used to perform both of these functions, but it is more efficient to adopt a hybrid approach in which a genetic algorithm is used to determine the network topology whilst the component values are obtained by numerical optimization
