Band pass filter (πfilter)
a) Ignoring resistance r of inductance and assuming the filter on its characteristic impedance ZC show that the circuit below is a band pass filter with the low and high cutoff frequencies fb and fh.
b) Show that the characteristic impedance can be written:

c) The inductance Lb has the resistance r=0.44Ω ; plot the Bode diagram for f ranging from 15kHz to 4MHz. Determine the crossover frequencies at −3dB, f'b and f'h.

Change the value of Lb using the average value of b and h to closer f'b and f'h from
