| A new practical method of designing an LC ladder two-port equalizer between an RLC load and an RLC generator is presented. We give a simple necessary and sufficient conditions for the realization of an equalizer that matches the RLC load to the RLC generator. It is shown that if we move a real zero or a pair of complex zeros of the Chebyshev minimum-phase reflection coefficient from the left-hand of the s-plane (RHS) to their mirror images in the right-half of the s-plane (LHS) instead of inserting a first-order or second-order all-pass function, we only need to solve a cubic equation in obtaining the matching network.;Two new methods of designing an n-port matching network (multiplexer) with complex source and load impedances are presented. A decomposition analysis technique, which reduces the synthesis of a multiplexer to that of realizing individual two-port equalizers, is given. Using a relationship between a special factorization of the even part of an individual channel input impedance... |
