Shortcut Method for Finding
the Frequency Response
The shortcut method consists of the following
g steps:
p
Step 1. Set s=j in G(s) to obtain G j .
Step 2. Rationalize G(j); We want to express it in the form.
G(j)=R
(j ) + jjI
where R and I are functions of Simplify G(j) by
multiplying the numerator and denominator by the
complex conjugate of the denominator.
