Dear all, My task is to implement a very narrow high pass filter to remove a DC offset of a signal. So the cut off frequency of the filter is very low. The filter must be linear phase. A first implementation was made using a double cascaded moving average filter. The filter seems to do its job very well. Unfortunately the group delay of the filter is too large. I have read some articles o...

Hello, I have a question about filter implementation. If I have a sequence x[n] and divide it into blocks of M samples per block and do the following: 1) Update filter-coefficients 2) Filter the kth block 3) k=k+1 4) Go to 1 How should the filter be implemented ? In matlab I have 2 options: Either I implement the filter like this: [output,final_conditions]=filter(numerato...

Hi, Can anyone give introduction about POTSBAND Design filter? and what the purpose of this filter??? I found matlab code for this filter, function [b,a]=bandfilter(fs, f1, f2) %POTSBAND Design filter for 300-3400 telephone bandwidth [B,A]=(FS) %Input: FS=sample frequency in Hz %Output: B/A is a discrete time bandpass filter with a passband gain of 1 %The filter meets the specifications o...

Hi, When one designs a fractional rate change filter, when specifying the filter parameters do you design the filter at the interpolated rate or the decimated rate? For example if you have an input rate of Fs then interp by 64 decimate by 125 filter and the filter will be implemented in a P/Q polyphase fashion do you design the filter at the 64*Fs rate? Assuming that the signal is alr...

Hello, I've got after the FM demodulation (by derivative : (IdQ-QdI) / (I=B2+Q=B2)) a low pass filter. This filter is a IIR Butterwoth 4th order. But I know that I can use a box car filter. But what is a box car filter ? Is it a FIR filter with rectangular window ? Or FIR filter with all the coefficients to value one ? I think that I just need to make an integration of my FM demo...

Hi, I am implementing a FIR filter. A typical application for the filter would be a wireless communications system. Assuming the filter is programmable, is it possible for any of the filter coefficients to be zero? I ask this as the multiplier unit in my filter's tap can be simplified if the coefficients are never zero. Reference to a credible source will be much appreciated. Many th...

Hi All, I am trying to understand how a non-integer interpolating filter works. For ex: In a 1.5 case, you would upsample by 3 and then down sample by 2. How is the convolution between input samples and filter coefficients choosen given that there are 3 sub filter? for an interolation by 3 filter the 1st sub filter(for a 15 tap) would be Y1(n)=x(n)*h(0)+x(n-3)*h(3)+x...

Hello everybody, I have a microphone with a given internal frequency filter IF(x) that I found experimentally in lab. I have around 10 points defining this filter from 100 hz to 16 Khz. (I can improve the granularity if required) I want to apply a A weighting filter AF(x) on the source ofthe microphone. but the output will be wrong if I apply directly the A filter from the output of t...

Dear folks I am studying about dsp and i need to calculate coefficients of a filter. I know that a filter is described by its transfer function H(w)=sum h(n)exp{-jwt). But I don't know what are coefficents of that filter. More specifically I need to present the coefficients of a filter g by the coefficients of a filter h, provided G(w)=exp(-wj)H(w+pi) Can I find the coefficients of...

Hi, I have a question regarding filter coefficients for a Parks-McClellan filter. I'm trying to write a simple software loop for the filter using its difference equation, but I've noticed a difference between the number of taps. For, say, a ten tap FIR filter designed using a Hamming window, there will be eleven filter coefficients C0, C1,...C10 which mulitply by the filter inputs x(n)...

Hello... I created a polyphase filter filter based on F.Harris's book shared register design. This is a Decimation by 2, 100 tap, Fs =100MHz, Low pass 20MHz - stop band 24MHz filter. Each MAC is 28-bit length, 14-bit ADC input, and the filter output is truncated. I also created a Xilinx distributed arith filter to compare using the same filter coefficients. ( For some reason I could no...

Hello all, I found the following digital filter algortihm Function filter(input: extended):exteded; begin x[0]:= (input+ a*x[-1]+b*x[-2]); filter:= (c*x[0]+d*x[-1]+e*x[-2]); x[-2]:= x[-1]; x[-1]:= x[0]; end; Can anybody tell my what type it is? Is it a IIR or a FIR filter, or something special? Thanks in advance em

Hi, I've to apply some special shaped filter to long signals, the filter coefficients I know already but the existing filter routine is probably to slow. I want to update the filter routine without becoming a signal processing expert ;-) What is the right way to apply a filter a) in time domain or b) in frequency domain It is possible to use some existing...

I have a client who filters complex data. They first calculate the magnitude, then filter that. I suggested they should filter the complex data, then calculate the magnitude. The same filter is used in each case, and the filter coefficients are purely real. The results are different, which is not a surprise, but I cannot find a simple way to explain why this is. Any suggestions woul...

Hi, Its known that Haar filter is the only FIR filter achieves the perfect reconstruction when used in QMF filter. Then why is it not used? Why do people go for longer length filters and pseudo QMF? What are the disadvantages of Haar filter that it cannot be used in QMF filter? Thanks in advance.

Sirs, I have just started going through filter basics and the first filter topic is moving average filter. My understanding of a filter has always been that a part of the information (can be noise or unwanted *information* in a certain context) gets removed. By the same logic, the power of the signal gets reduced after filtering process. When I look at the moving average filter, it appear...

I was following the previous posts on Matched Filters. Very interesting. Some questions keep haunting me. These may be stupid. I dont know. 1. If the Transmitter Filter (i.e., Pulse Shaping Filter) G_T(t) is symmetric, then the matched filter G_R(t) is same as the pulse shaping filter. Hence for Raised Cosine (RC) pulse shaping filter, the matched filter is also RC. For RRC pulse shaping, ...
