Filter is a two port network, used to control the frequency response of the system.
For a band of frequencies, the gain is high, called Pass band.
In other part of band, it attenuates, called Stop band
Design methods
So far, at microwave frequencies, three possible design procedures been
followed
Periodic structures
As:
or
Based on the selection of M and N, there are four possible design type been
explored, so far.
Namely:
Maximally flat or Butterworth or Binomial Filter
Equal Ripple or Chebyshev Filter
Elliptical Filter
Linear Phase Filter
Butterworth Vs Chebyshev
N, fc, MF or ER,
IL at pass band
and Stop band
To LP,
BP, HP,
BS filters

Now compare this equation with Maximally flat response with c=1 (normalizing
with cut-off frequency)

This same procedure has been extended to calculate for higher order filters and the
lumped elements (normalized to source impedance) are tabulated.
