The objective of this review paper, is the presentation of the basic features of the well known class of elliptic filters. Even though this is not a new subject, the theory of the elliptic filters found in most books is restricted only to a few resulting equations, due to the great complexity associated with the Jacobian elliptic functions. The aspects of the elliptic filters described in this paper include the detailed estimation of the minimum filter order, the construction of the filter transfer function via the identification of its poles and zeros in the complex plane, as well as the application of the resulting design procedure for the construction of an elliptic filter that meets prescribed specifications.
