Summary In this work, the analysis of negative group delay circuits in fractional domain has been conducted. The low pass and the high pass negative group delay circuits constructed based on passive network have been chosen as our candidate circuits. For performing the analysis in fractional domain, the novel Caputo–Fabrizio derivative‐based fractional impedance have been introduced to both circuits. The crucial parameters, the necessary conditions, and the existence conditions of both candidate negative group delay circuits have been formulated. The simulations have been conducted based on the formulated results where the comparisons with the conventional prototypes have been made. The verifications by the proof‐of‐concept circuits have also been performed. In addition, the effects of variation in the order of fractional impedances have been investigated. In summary, it has been found that considering these negative group delay circuits in the fractional domain, which effectively taking unavoidable nonidealities that cannot be modeled in conventional domain into account, significantly alters their characteristics especially the low pass circuit. However they can retain their low pass and high pass negative group delay functions.
