Approximation and realization of power-law all-pass filters

Non-integer power-law all-pass transfer functions, are approximated by suitable integer-order transfer functions in this work. The derivation of the integer-order transfer functions is based on the analytic expansion of the (non-integer) power-law transfer functions through the utilization of the binomial theorem. The offered benefit is the derivation of stable integer-order transfer functions. This study is supported by experimental results, obtained using a Field Programmable Analog Array device, after the employment of curve fitting based approximation techniques. © 2022 Elsevier GmbH
