Etymology

"Butterworth" refers to the Butterworth function for describing filter transfer functions (Butterworth, S, "On the theory of filter amplifiers," Wireless Engineer, vol. 7 pp. 536-541, October 1930). "Bandpass" reflects that the transfer function is has both low and high frequency cutoffs.
"Sim" indicates that this implementation is not necessarily appropriate characterizing real bandpass filters; in the future, there may be a more general class called simply "Butterworth".

Synopsis

This function class simulates the (amplitude) transfer function for a wideband bandpass filter constructed from the combination of a low-pass and a high-pass Butterworth filter.

In analog electronic filter design, a Butterworth low-pass filter is one in which the amplitude transfer function, |H(jw)| (where j = sqrt(-1) and w is the angular frequency), is given by:

|H(jw)| = 1 / sqrt(1 + (w/w_c)^(2*n))

casacore::sqrt

LatticeExprNode sqrt(const LatticeExprNode &expr)

where n refers to the filter "order" and w_c is the "cutoff frequency".
When w = w_c, the filter output is 1/sqrt(2) that of the input, and the higher the order, the steeper the drop off towards zero and the closer the approximation to a idealized step function.

Filter theory provides transformations for deriving transfer functions of high-pass and band-pass filters which reflect how the electrical circuits actually work. However, to simplify this class's implementation and to make the transfer function behavior more predictable by the naive user, THIS CLASS DOES NOT ACTUALLY USE THE PROPER TRANSFORMATIONS (see Etymology section above).
Instead, the Butterworth bandpass transfer function is approximated by low pass component, given above, combined with a pseudo high-pass function that is of the same form but with w substituted with -w. Both components are shifted such that its peak transfer point is at a given "center" position. The cutoff value and order can be set independently for both ends of the passband.

Example

// Create a bandpass function centered on x=0.8 and cutoffs at 0 and 2.5.
// The orders of the drop-offs will 4 at the low end and 5 at the high
// end.  The peak will by 1.0 by default.
SimButterworthBandpass<Double> butt(4, 5, 0, 2.5, 0.8);
 
Double z = butt(1);    // z = 1.0
z = butt(0);           // z = 1/sqrt(2)
z = butt(2.5);         // z = 1/sqrt(2)
z = butt(-25);         // z ~ 9.24e-9 ~ 0
 
// change the low-end cutoff to -25.0
butt.setMinCutoff(-25);
z = butt(-25);         // z = 1/sqrt(2)

Motivation

This class was created to simulate systemtic Butterworth bandpasses within the simulator tool. It can used by the SimBJones class to vary the bandpass in a predictable way. However, it has limited value for real filter analysis, and it is not expected to be a realistic representation of real bandpass filters in use with radio telescopes backends.
