STUDY OF I-F TRANSFORMERS FOR SINGLE SIDEBAND OPERATION

Abstract

The study and development of precision RF filters was continued. An approach to network synthesis that differs from the conventional low pass-band pass transformation method is presented. The approach is to determine a circuit configuration known to be capable of producing a suitable approximation to the desired response. This network determines the nature of the rational function transfer function. An approximation method is presented which determines the coefficients of this rational function. From these coefficients, the element values of the network are determined. The entire design procedure can be programmed on a digital computer. The approximation method is presented in detail. The general forms of the transmission matrix elements of ladder networks with up to 21 branches in terms of the branch impedances and admittances are included. (Author)
