ABSTRACT
The study of dynamic systems on an analog computer often involves the synthesis of complex transfer functions. Techniques from the field of network synthesis are combined with methods used in electronic-differential-analyzer work to provide effective means for realizing these transfer functions with a minimum of computer equipment. The basic ideas of associating high-gain amplifiers and phase-inverting amplifiers with resistor-capacitor networks are applied in order to obtain three systematic methods for synthesizing transfer functions of various degrees of complexity. The methods described are illustrated by an example.
