Theory

This document discusses the realization of RC functions in electrical networks. It provides: 1) Five properties that an RC function must have to be considered a driving point immitance function, including alternating poles and zeros on the negative real axis. 2) Four forms to realize RC functions - Foster I, Foster II, Cauer I, and Cauer II. Foster forms are obtained from partial fraction expansions of the impedance or admittance function. Cauer forms are obtained from continued fraction expansions about different poles. 3) Details on each realization form, including the corresponding network schematic and mathematical representation. Key steps include partial fraction expansions of the impedance or admittance function and continued

Realization of RC Functions

Theory

Realization of RC Functions:
For a function to be RC driving point immitance function, it should
have following properties.
1) Poles and Zeros are simple and are located on the negative
real axis of the s-plane.
2) The poles and zeros are alternate to each other.
3) Lowest Critical frequency nearest to the origin must be a
Pole.
4) Highest Critical frequency farthest to the origin must be a
Zero.
5) Residues evaluated at the poles of ZRC(s) must be real and
positive.
Similar to LC functions RC functions can also be realized in 4
forms.
1. Foster Realization:
a) Foster I form
b) Foster II form
2. Cauer or Ladder Realization:
a) Cauer I form
b) Cauer II form
1] Foster Realization:
Foster I Form:
The Foster I form is obtained by P.F.E of Z(s).
Z(s) =

2] Cauer or Ladder Realization:


Cauer I Form:
The Cauer I form is obtained by removal of the pole from the
Impedance Function Z(s) at s=. This is same as the C.F.E of the
given function about the pole.

Points to keep in mind:


Most of the following points are similar to that of LC functions only
some changes are there.
1. Foster I form is obtained by P.F.E of the impedance function
Z(s).
2. Foster II form is obtained by P.F.E of the admittance function
()

3. Cauer I form is obtained by C.F.E of the given impedance


function Z(s) about the Pole at Infinity().
4. Cauer II form is obtained by C.F.E of the given impedance
function Z(s) about the Pole at Origin.
5. While realizing Cauer II form, arrange the Numerator and
Denominator polynomials in Ascending order of s.
6. While realizing the Foster forms, if the degree of
Denominator is greater than the degree of Numerator then,
directly P.F.E is carried out. No long division is required.

NOTE:
For an RC immitance function,

ZRC(s) =
