TY - JOUR T1 - An Alternative Approach to Design Lumped Element Delay Equalizers AU - Şengül, Metin PY - 2015 DA - November JF - IU-Journal of Electrical & Electronics Engineering PB - İstanbul University-Cerrahpasa WT - DergiPark SN - 1303-0914 SP - 1883 EP - 1887 VL - 15 IS - 1 LA - en AB - In this paper, an algorithm has been proposed to design lumped element delay equalizers which is considered as a single block as opposed to the existing methods in literature. Then after obtaining the desired delay performance, the designed delay equalizer is divided and realized as cascaded first-order and/or secondorder all-pass circuits. An example is given to illustrate the utilization of the proposed algorithm KW - Delay equalizer KW - real frequency technique KW - lossless network KW - passive network CR - G.
