Andy, FYI besides the KMethod, DePoli/Borin/Sarti et alias always in the 1990s also formulated the W-method which was the dual of KMethod but using the wave digital filter theory by Fettweis. AFAIK is not so easily used because of the increased complexity of nonlinearities adaptors involved (yo

Hi Andy, thanks for your hint at this very interesting wikipedia article. It is certainly correct, that those filter-realizations with a sample-delay in the feedback-path are based on the "explicit" methods described in that article. You are also right, that using an implicit approach does elimi
