A canonical synthesis for immittance functions that can be decomposed into the product of an RL and an RC impedance

A new and canonical synthesis for a class of immittance functions that can be represented by a product of anRLand anRCimpedance is presented. It is shown that the well-known Foster synthesis for two-element kind networks can be considered as a special case of the above synthesis. Furthermore, the topology of the synthesized immittances can be determined in advance and allows for different network realizations.
