void ButterAnalog(int Order, TVec *z, TVec *p, double &k);
Design an analog Butterworth lowpass prototype filter of order Order, cutoff fixed at 1 rad/s. Returns zero-pole-gain in z (zeros), p (poles), k (gain): H(s)=k/(prod_(i=1)^n(s-p_i)), p_k=exp(j(pi/2+(pi(2k-1))/2n)), k=1... n. All n poles lie on the left half of the unit circle (so the prototype is stable, Re(p_k)<0) and all zeros are at infinity (z is returned empty), giving a maximally-flat magnitude that is 3 dB down at omega=1. Domain: Order is a positive integer, 1 <= Order <= MaxIirOrder (=50). z and p must share the same precision; a precision mismatch raises an exception. No NaN is produced for valid input.
Design analog butterworth lowpass prototype filter of order Order. Place the resulting transfer function in zero-pole form in Z (zeros), P (poles) and K (gain). The cutoff frequency of the prototype filter is preset to 1 rad/sec.
The filter has all zeros in infinity. The transfer function is defined as ([1], p. 277):
k0 H(s) = ------------------------- (s - s[1])...(s - s[n]) The poles of the filter are located at s[k] := Expj(Pi*(0.5+(2*k-1)/(2*n))); n = order of filter k = 1,...,n k0 = gain
The magnitude response is down 3dB at the cutoff frequency.
