- randomly choosing, using the computer, a plurality of different sets of input parameters for the wireless energy transmission circuit;
selecting, from the plurality of sets of randomly chosen input parameters, using the computer, a selected set of input parameters;
generating, using the computer, an initial population of circuits based on the selected set of input parameters, the initial population of circuits having the same circuit structure as the wireless energy transmission circuit;
selecting, using the computer, individual component values for the initial population of circuits based on a resonant frequency analysis;
randomly varying, using the computer, the selected individual component values to generate a larger population of multiple different circuits;
evaluating, using the computer, the larger population of circuits;
selecting, using the computer, a set of circuits based on the evaluating; and
generating, using the computer, a new population of circuits based on the selected set of circuits.
