• Figure 1. This RC circuit models a single dominant time-constant transducer, producing a rounded, intermediate voltage, V_X, in response to an input signal, V_IN. With V_X as its input, the anticipator circuit reconstructs the original
• Figure 2. The reconstruction of the input sawtooth waveform shows that the circuit can operate properly with complex, possibly repetitive waveforms
• Figure 3. The output of the anticipator jumps immediately to the asymptotic limit of a rising or falling exponential transducer response
• Figure 4. The transducer-induced phase shift of a sine-wave signal having a single frequency component is properly back-corrected in time, and the slightly attenuated transducer output has been restored at the output
