| | Finite Differences vs. the Bilinear Transform |
 | | While the bilinear transform ``warps'' the frequency axis, we can say the FDA ``doubly warps'' the frequency axis: It has a progressive, compressive warping in the direction of increasing frequency, like the bilinear transform, but unlike the bilinear transform, it also warps normal to the frequency axis. |
 | | In summary, both the bilinear transform and the FDA preserve order, stability, and positive realness. |
 | | The bilinear transform maps the continuous-time frequency axis in the |
