Summary: 
In this paper, a reduction of the number of components included in direct simulation type active complex filter is proposed. The proposed method is achieved by sharing NIC's (Negative Impedance Converters) which satisfy some conditions. Compared with the conventional method, the proposed one has wide generality. As an example, a third-order complex elliptic filter is designed. The validity of the proposed method is confirmed through experiment.
