Custom-designed Bessel third-order LPF filters: (a) Magnitude-Normalized and (b) Classical, with cutoff frequencies fc = 1.8 GHz.
Pulse generated by Keysight M8195A AWG and expanded using Classical custom-designed filter. (a) Waveforms of the pulses acquired by Keysight DSAZ334A DSO. (b) Normalized magnitude spectra calculated using FFT.
