Abstract

A new synthesis is given for the realization of cross-coupled filters in the general asymmetric case, which includes singly terminated filters useful in the design of contiguous multiplexers. The result is obtained by formation of the 2-port transfer matrix of the network, enabling circuit element extractions to be performed from both input and output ports, including the direct extraction of cross-couplings. An example is presented of an 8th degree singly-terminated filter having finite frequency and real axis transmission zeros
