Corpus analysis for Stopband
- In this selection, "stopband" usually appears near the start of the sentence. The average example has 25.9 words, and this corpus slice is mostly made up of statements.
- Around the word, required, corner, meet and attenuation stand out and add context to how "stopband" is used.
- Recognizable usage signals include the stopband of a and alternatively a stopband corner frequency. That gives this page its own corpus information beyond isolated example sentences.
- By corpus frequency, "stopband" sits close to words such as aakash, aanholt and aardwolf, which helps place it inside the broader word index.
Example types with stopband
The same corpus examples are grouped by length and sentence type, making it easier to see the contexts in which the word appears:
The frequencies between a stopband and a passband define the transition band. (12 words)
A band-stop filter has one stopband, specified by two non-zero and non-infinite corner frequencies. (17 words)
The Butterworth filter has the poorest transition but has a more even response, avoiding ripples in either the passband or stopband. (21 words)
Alternatively, a stopband corner frequency may be specified as a point where a transition band and a stopband meet: a frequency for which the attenuation is larger than the required stopband attenuation, which for example may be 30 dB or 100 dB. (42 words)
The stopband of a low-pass filter is the frequencies from the stopband corner frequency (which is slightly higher than the passband 3 dB cut-off frequency) up to the infinite frequency. (32 words)
Depending on application, the required attenuation within the stopband may typically be a value between 20 and 120 dB higher than the nominal passband attenuation, which often is 0 dB. (30 words)
Example sentences (8)
Alternatively, a stopband corner frequency may be specified as a point where a transition band and a stopband meet: a frequency for which the attenuation is larger than the required stopband attenuation, which for example may be 30 dB or 100 dB.
The stopband of a high-pass filter consists of the frequencies from 0 hertz to a stopband corner frequency (slightly lower than the passband cut-off frequency).
The stopband of a low-pass filter is the frequencies from the stopband corner frequency (which is slightly higher than the passband 3 dB cut-off frequency) up to the infinite frequency.
A band-stop filter has one stopband, specified by two non-zero and non-infinite corner frequencies.
As is clear from the image, the elliptic filter is sharper than the others, but at the expense of ripples in both its passband and stopband.
Depending on application, the required attenuation within the stopband may typically be a value between 20 and 120 dB higher than the nominal passband attenuation, which often is 0 dB.
The Butterworth filter has the poorest transition but has a more even response, avoiding ripples in either the passband or stopband.
The frequencies between a stopband and a passband define the transition band.
