Abstract :
This algorithm is based on estimates of filter characterization parameters based on the results of a system identification and subsequently calculated adjustments of the modeled controlling components. Simulations show this algorithm converges to a solution after iterations in the ideal case and attains good speed and accuracy even when parasitic effects are included in the system model. Simulations of the tuning of a sixth-order elliptic lowpass filter with 0.5-dB passband ripple designed to have a normalized cutoff frequency at 1 (rad/s) indicate that 0.501-dB passband ripple and 0.015% accuracy in the 3 dB band-edge can be achieved in the presence of typical parasitics
