Abstract
A passive filter arrangement and a method of providing such a filter is described. The frequency response of the filter arrangement is substantially the same as the frequency response of a first filter of an order having a first value, the frequency response of the first filter being representable by a first set of one or more poles and/or one or more zeros. Descriptions of a plurality of second filters are generated, each second filter having an order lower than the order of the first value, each second filter having a frequency response representable by a one or more poles and/or one or more zeros, the one or more poles and/or one or more zeros of each lower order filter being a subset of the first set. The lower order filters are cascaded.
