问题
I think, what amplitude in the noised regions on the FFT-plot of the filtered signal should be lower, then now. Probably, small numeric deviations/errors presented in the scipy.fftpack.lfilter().
I tried to add noise to the existing signal, but no result.
Why FFT-amplitude of the filtered signal (green) in the noise regions are so high?
Update:
300 dB of an FFT-amplitude are non-physical - it's clear, it's due to 64bit float in the Python-environment.
FFT of the filtered signal (green) has so low dB (as ~67 dB) due to ~4000 samples at all signal (not 'per second' as on the picture, little mistake, not critical), sample rate = 200 samples/sec. 1 frequency bin=200/4000/2=0.025Hz, 2000 bins shown.
If we take a longer signal, we get a more frequency resolution per bin (i.e. 40 000samples, 1 freq bin = 200/40 000/2 = 0.0025 Hz). And also we get FFT of a filtered signal ~87 dB.
(Numbers 67 dB and 87 dB seems to be non-physical, because of an initial signal SNR 300dB, but I try to add some noise to the existing signal and get the same numbers)
If you want to get a picture of a non-depend FFT to the number of samples in a signal, you should use a windowed FFT and slide window to compute a whole-signal-FFT.

I think you -300dB of noise is pretty low. Keep in mind the this is a log scale, so we are talking about a couple of digits at 64bit resolution.
Using double precision float (64bit) you won't get any lower.
