1. Network Analysis and Synthesis
Chapter 4
Synthesis of deriving point functions
(one port networks)

2. Elementary Synthesis procedures
• The basic philosophy behind the synthesis of
driving-point functions is to break up a
positive real (p.r.) function Z(s) into a sum of
simpler p.r. functions Z1(s), Z2(s) . . . Zn(s).
• Then to synthesize these individual Zi(s) as
elements of the overall network whose dp
impedance is

3. Breaking up process
• One important restriction is that all Zi(s) must
be positive real.
• If we were given all the Zi(s), we could
synthesize a network whose driving point
impendance is Z(s) by simply connecting the
Zi(s) in series.
• However, if we were to start from Z(s) alone,
how do we decompose Z(s) into Zi(s)?

4. Removing a pole at s=0
• If there is a pole at s=0, we can write Q(s) as
• Hence, Z(s) becomes
• Z1(s) is a capacitor.
• We know Z1(s) is positive real, is Z2(s) positive
real?

5. Is Z2(s) positive real?
• The poles of Z2(s) are also poles of Z1(s), hence,
Z2(s) doesn’t’ have poles on the right hand side of
the s plane and no multiple poles on the jw axis.
– Satisfies the first 2 properties of p.r. functions.
• What about Re(Z2(jw))?
• Since Z(s) is p.r. Re(Z2(jw))=Re(Z(jw))>0.
• Hence, Z2(s) is p.r.

6. Removing a pole at s=∞
• If Z(s) has a pole at s=∞, we can write Z(s) as

show that Z2(s) is p.r.

15. Synthesis of one port networks with two
kinds of elements
• In this section we will focus on the synthesis of
networks with only L-C, R-C or R-L elements.
• The deriving point impedance/admittance of
these kinds of networks have special
properties that makes them easy to
synthesize.

16. 1. L-C imittance functions
• These networks have only inductors and
capacitors.
• Hence, the average power consumed in these
kind of networks is zero. (Because an inductor
and a capacitor don’t dissipate energy.)

18. Properties of L-C function
1. The driving point impedance/admittance of
an L-C network is even/odd or odd/even.
2. Both are Hurwitz, hence only simple
imaginary zeros and poles on the jw axis.
3. Poles and zeros interlace on the jw axis.
4. Highest power of the numerator and
denominator may only differ by 1.
5. Either a zero or a pole at origin or infinity.

19. Synthesis of L-C networks
• There are two kinds of network realization
types for two element only networks.
– Foster and
– Cauer

20. Foster synthesis
• Uses decomposition of the given F(s) into
simpler two element impedances/admittances.
• For an L-C network with system function F(s), it
can be written as
• This is because F(s) has poles on the jw axis
only.

23. • For driving point impedance

24. Cauer synthesis
• Uses partial fraction expansion method.
• It is based on removing pole at s=∞.
• Since the degree of the numerator and
denominator differ by only 1, there is either a
pole at s=∞ or a zero at s=∞.
– If a pole at s=∞, then we remove it.
– If a zero at s=∞, first we inverse it and remove the
pole at s=∞.

42. Properties of R-L impedance/R-C admittance
1. Poles and zeros are located on the negative
real axis and they alternate.
2. The nearest singularity near origin is zero.
The singularity near infinity is a pole.
3. The residues of the poles must be real and
negative.
• Because the residues are negative, we can’t use
standard decomposition method to synthesize.

admittance
• Foster
– If F(s) is R-L impedance d.p or R-C admittance d.p
function. We can write it as
– Because of the third property of R-L impedance/R-
C admittance d.p. functions, we can’t decompose
F(s) into synthesizable components with the way
we were using till now.
– We have to find a new way where the residues
wont be negative.
