Abstract
This paper attempts to study the performance of simplex search method using an electrical engineering problem while configuring voltage impulse generator. Simplex search method is based on Nelder-Mead algorithm. Configuring the voltage impulse generator implies producing the standard waveshape characterized by their time-To-front (t<inf>f</inf>) and time-To-Tail (tt). To get the desired values of t<inf>f</inf>and tt for a given impulse generator (generator capacitance, C<inf>g</inf>) and load capacitance (C<inf>1</inf>), the wave-shaping resistors (R<inf>s</inf>and R<inf>d</inf>) values are to be determined. The mathematical model of voltage impulse generator is transformed into a search problem (simplex search) to arrive at the best values of R<inf>s</inf>and R<inf>d</inf>, for a given C<inf>g</inf>, C<inf>1</inf>, to achieve intended t<inf>f</inf>and tt. © 2019 IEEE.
