New method for cascade synthesis of 1-port passive networks, with reciprocal and nonreciprocal lossless 2-ports described by scattering parameters

In this paper a new procedure for the cascade synthesis of 1-port RLCT¿ (resistance, inductance, capacitance, transformer and gyrator) networks is considered. Each of the elementary sections is either reciprocal or nonreciprocal, and it realises a simple set of transmission zeros. The synthesis procedure utilises the scattering parameters, and only operations on polynomials are required.
