It is to be noted that the oscillatory behavior with equal maxima andminima of squared Tchebycheff polynomials for values oi x 1 make their use particularlysuitable as the solution of the approximation problem for low-pass filtersand impedance matching networks. It is now apparent that these same. Fig. 18—Tchebycheff polynomial, F„(.t), for w = 5. properties validate their use as the out-band approximating function forreactive Another useful property of squared Tchebycheff polynomials as ap-proximating functions for low-pass filters and impedance matching net-works is the inclusion of the specification of the tolerance as a factor in thetransfer function. The allowable db deviation over the useful band is relatedto e by € = e - 1, where ap is the maximum pass-band loss in nepers. Thus, the appropriatechoice of e always realizes the specified tolerance over the useful band. 2 When better tolerances are required and when the network configuration is notrigidly specified, Jacobian elliptic functions, rather than TchebychefT polynomials, mightbe employed.
