Electric wave filters having terminated filters as arms

Abstract

The object of this thesis is the study of the filter formed by using terminated filters (considered as two-terminal networks), rather than the usual pure resistances, as arms. It was hoped that such a filter would exhibit unusual properties which might prove useful, such as greater attenuation through a large band, steeper attenuation curves at cutoff, better impedance characteristics, absorption of power rather than reflection in the rejection bands, and economy of components
