Balanced realization of Pade approximants of e/sup -sT/

An algorithm to calculate the balanced realization of all-pass Pade approximants of e/sup -sT/ is presented. The algorithm makes use of a regular C-type continued fraction expansion of e/sup -sT/ and a properly scaled recurrence formula is used to generate the coefficients of the Pade denominator polynomial. A truncation property of the balanced realization is discussed. >
