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.
Digital transmission There are two main categories of digital communication transmission methods: baseband and passband.
By contrast, passband bandwidth is the difference between a highest frequency and a nonzero lowest frequency.
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.
DSL When loading coils are in place, signal attenuation remains low for signals within the passband of the transmission line but increases rapidly for frequencies above the audio cutoff frequency.
E.g., a passband filter that has a bandwidth of 2 MHz with center frequency 10 MHz will have a fractional bandwidth of 2/10, or 20%.
