Passive network synthesis via dual spectral factorization

Abstract

The role of dual transfer function matrices in network analysis and synthesis is described. The transfer function matrices are actually spectral factors of a certain power spectrum matrix. Procedures for constructing dual and self-dual transfer function matrices are presented, from which general synthesis methods are derived for nonreciprocal and reciprocal networks. A number of known synthesis procedures are shown to be special instances of the general methods. Show more
