Filter networks
At the end of this chapter you should be able to:
• appreciate the purpose of a filter network
• understand basic types of filter sections, i.e. low-pass, high-pass, band-pass and band-stop filters
• define cut-off frequency, two-port networks and characteristic impedance
• design low- and high-pass filter sections given nominal impedance and cut-off frequency
• determine the values of components comprising a band-pass filter given cut-off frequencies
• appreciate the difference between ideal and practical filter characteristics

17.1 Introduction equipment. The bandwidths of filters used in communi-

cations systems vary from a fraction of a hertz to many
megahertz, depending on the application.
Attenuation is a reduction or loss in the magnitude of
There are four basic types of filter sections:
a voltage or current due to its transmission over a line.
A filter is a network designed to pass signals having (a) low-pass
frequencies within certain bands (called passbands) (b) high-pass
with little attenuation, but greatly attenuates sig- (c) band-pass
nals within other bands (called attenuation bands or (d) band-stop
stopbands).
A filter is frequency sensitive and is thus composed
of reactive elements. Since certain frequencies are to
be passed with minimal loss, ideally the inductors and 17.2 Two-port networks and
capacitors need to be pure components since the pres- characteristic impedance
ence of resistance results in some attenuation at all
frequencies. Networks in which electrical energy is fed in at one pair

for this reason that the networks shown in Fig. 17.3(a)

Summarising, a high-pass filter is one designed to

pass signals at frequencies above a specified cut-off
frequency.
The characteristic shown in Fig. 17.13 is ideal in that
it is assumed that there is no attenuation at all in the
R0 L
pass-bands and infinite attenuation in the attenuation R0
band. Both of these conditions are impossible to achieve
in practice. Due to resistance, mainly in the inductive
elements the attenuation in the pass-band will not be (a)
zero, and in a practical filter section the attenuation in
the attenuation band will have a finite value. In addition C
to the resistive loss there is often an added loss due to
mismatching.
Ideally when a filter is inserted into a network it is
matched to the impedance of that network. However R0
