Hi,
I have desiged an 9th order elliptic LC low pass filter with cutoff at
111.55MHz. The stop-band attenuation is 50dB and should be at
121.55MHz. I have designed this with ideal components, which give an
ideal response. however, when I simulated with standard library
components, not surprisingly, the response was poor, due to the low Q
of the inductors. The filter was designed using parallel resonant
circuits, so the capacitors were tweaked to try to tune the circuit to
move the zeros back in place, but to no avail.
I wish to try to re-design the filter with predistortion, to try and
compensate for this effect. however, I can find no literature on the
internet that will help me. Can anybody point me in the right
direction, send a link or two, or even reccomend a book? I am using
Agilent's ADS for design and simulation.
Cheers,
Phil
