Butterworth Filter

Butterworth filter is a type of signal processing filter designed to have a flat frequency response as possible in passband. 
The designing of butterworth filter was done using BLT(Bilinear Transform) method. Analog and digital filters were designed and frequency warping effect was studied.
The response of the filter has no ripple in stopband and passband. The poles are inside the unit circle and lie to the left hand side of s-plane. Thus both the filters are stable. For better stability the order of the filter should be increased.

  1. Quick roll-off around the cutoff frequency, which improves with increasing order.

  2. From the response we can conclude that this filter does not have ripples

  3. Butterworth Filter is also called maximally flat filter due to its response in the graph observed.The rolloff depends upon the number of poles

  4. The magnitude response of the Butterworth filter decreases monotonically as the frequency increases from 0 to infinity.

  5. This is preferred in applications where we want a constant magnitude

  6. Magnitude response is monotonic in nature.
