Broadband impedance matching via lossless unsymmetrical lattice networks

Abstract

In this paper a broadband impedance matching network (equalizer) design algorithm has been proposed. In the equalizer a lossless unsymmetrical lattice network has been utilized. The branch impedances of the lattice network are considered as singly terminated lossless LC networks since it is not desired to dissipate power in the equalizer. After giving the algorithm its usage has been illustrated via an example. (C) 2011 Elsevier GmbH. All rights reserved.
