Performance analysis of DE-optimized multiplier-less finite impulse response data transmission filter

Design of power efficient data transmission filters has developed enormous interest among researchers of late. A number of hardware friendly digital filters have therefore found their possible applications for the effective minimization of Inter Symbol Interference (ISI) in various communication systems. In this paper, we have utilized a multiplier-less Finite Impulse Response (FIR) filter whose individual coefficient is represented as sum of power of two and synthesized by means of Differential Evolution (DE) optimization. The effectiveness of the designed data transmission has been evaluated in terms of a number of performance parameters. It has been found that the designed filter outperforms the other filters designed with existing state-of-the-art powers-of-two representations.
