Transfer function from amplitude response?

Click For Summary
The discussion focuses on a method for generating a polynomial for the amplitude response of a filter, which allows for customizable flatness and roll-off characteristics. The original paper provides an amplitude response formula but lacks details on deriving the corresponding transfer function. A participant successfully determined the transfer function using a Mathematica notebook and offers to share it with others interested in trying it out. The conversation highlights the collaborative nature of problem-solving in filter design. The shared notebook could be a valuable resource for those exploring similar filter responses.

Hi, in the paper I've attached, they give a method for generating a polynomial g for the amplitude response of a filter that gives arbitrary flatness and roll-off characteristics.

\frac{1}{\sqrt{1+g}}

And then they say the transfer function can be easily determined from this, but they don't say how.

For example, they give an amplitude response

\frac{1}{\sqrt{1+10s^{8}-24w^{10}+15w^{12}}}

and then they just say "then we will have the transfer function"

\frac{0.259}{s^{6}+2.392w^{5}+3.661s^{4}+2.755s^{3}+2.615s^{2}+1.162s+0.259}

I know how to get the transfer function from the amplitude response for a standard filter like a butterworth or chebyshev, but for ones like this?

Hey, I figured it out. I wrote a Mathematica note book that does it. Anyone want it?

Cool. Yes please, it would be fun to try out. Can you post it as an attachment?
 
Yeah.

I am trying to understand how transferring electric from the powerplant to my house is more effective using high voltage. The suggested explanation that the current is equal to the power supply divided by the voltage, and hence higher voltage leads to lower current and as a result to a lower power loss on the conductives is very confusing me. I know that the current is determined by the voltage and the resistance, and not by a power capability - which defines a limit to the allowable...
