Conjectured Properties

The following conjectures are true for analog positive-real functions, but no rigorous attempt was made to establish them in the discrete-time case.

  • If all poles and zeros of a PR function are on the unit circle, then they alternate along the circle.

  • If $B(z)/A(Z)$ is PR, then so is $B^\, where the prime denotes differentiation in $z$.
