 N=3
 Center frequency fo=1.5GHz
 3dB Bandwith= 200 MHz, f1=1.4GHz, f2=1.6 GH

Assumption:

LPF with cut-off frequency Wc=1 Rad/s,

Zs=ZL
Design a Butterworth BPF:
Step: LPP
Using values from table for Butterworth LPP filters

ω C = 2πf c = 1

LPP to bandpass transformation 1 = 2πf 1 = 2π * 1. 4 * 10
 Impedance demoralization ω 2 = 2πf 2 = 2π * 1.6 * 10 6

Step3: Frequency scaling and impedance demoralization
