Abstract

We compare the performance of the genetic algorithm (GA) and particle swarm optimization (PSO) methods in black box circuit configuration strategies in simulation and discuss the performance of both black box and gray box strategies by implementing a balanced power splitter on a 4-port feedforward waveguide mesh circuit.
