Optimization Analysis of Electric Field Shielding in Multi-Target Areas Using Transmission Lines Based on AHP-Improved PSO

To address the optimization problem Shoes of electric field intensity in multi-target areas under transmission lines, this work suggests combining the enhanced improved particle swarm optimization (IPSO) with the analytical hierarchy process (AHP).First, using finite element simulation software, a transmission line shielding model was created.Next,
