On designing sharp cutoff low-pass filters
M. Agarwal, Adel S. Sedra · IEEE Transactions on Audio and Electroacoustics · 1972
Effects of introducing single or multiple pairs of coincidentj\omegaaxis zeros in all-pole Chebyshev filter transfer functions are investigated. It is shown that for the same ordern, Chebyshev filters with finitej\omegaaxis zeros provide much sharper cutoff than all-pole Chebyshev filters. It is also shown that for the samen, the same number of pairs of zerosm, and the same locations of zeros, the cutoff slope and stopband characteristic of the finite zero Chebyshev filters are much better than those of the finite zero Butterworth filters. Graphs helpful in the design of such filters have been plotted and their use is illustrated by an example.
