This paper proposes a subsystem-based structure evolution algorithm for stable IIR digital filter design. The method designs the IIR digital filter through optimizing the filter structure. A filter structure is defined as the connection of the subsystems. A subsystem is a 2-order IIR digital structure with uncertain parameters. Subsystems are randomly connected with the constraints of no feedback branches between subsystems. The subsystem’s parameters and the connections between subsystems are optimized by evolutionary algorithms. An adaptive multiple-elites-guided composite differential evolution algorithm (AMECoDEs) is used to optimize this problem. Four classic types of filters, lowpass, highpass, bandpass and bandstop filters are designed. Five state-of-the-art evolutionary algorithms are compared. The simulation results show that AMECoDEs holds the first place on comprehensive performance and convergence rate. At the same time, the poles of filters all reside within the unit circle, which validates the stability of the IIR digital filters.
