NETWORK SYNTHESIS USING SIGNAL FLOW GRAPHS

Abstract

DESCRIPTORS: Simultaneous equations, Synthe sis, Transfer functions, *Electrical networks, *Microwave networks, Impedance, Resistance, Circuits, Mathematical analysis. A technique for the synthesis of driving point immittance functions through the use of signal flow graphs is developed. The method is shown to be a completely general one. A signal flow graph i drawn after an examination of the driving point function. This flow graph is related to a realizable network. The values of elements in the branches f the network are found from a consideration of loop gains in the flow graph. The theory involved is first illustrated in terms of the synthesis of 2 element type circuits. Then, the general R-L-C case is treated. (Author)
