These are the unit sample responses of two filters.
Said another way,
Filter 1 has an output y(kT)=1.0*x(kT) + 1.0*x(k-1)T
Filter 2 has an ouput y(kT)=0.5*x(kT) + 1.0*x(k-1)T + 0.5*x(k-2)T
Said another way,
The sequences given for the Filters are their coefficients.

hi..
I did not understand what the following statements mean...plz explain
Filter 1: [1 1]
Filter 2: [0.5 1.0 0.5]

Anshu,
Here are some examples for you to consider:
Start with a set of samples:
[1 2 3 4 3 2 1]
Get ready to interpolate them by a factor of 2 by adding zeros where the new
samples will occur:
[1 0 2 0 3 0 4 0 5 0 4 0 3 0 2 0 1]
Now FIR filter this sequence in a few ways:
Filter 1: [1 1]
Output from Filter 1: [1 1 2 2 3 3 4 4 5 5 4 4 3 3 2 2 1 1]
Not a very fancy interpolation; it's just a "hold" function.
Filter 2: [0.5 1.0 0.5]
Output from Filter 2: [.5 1.0 1.5 2.0 2.5 3.0 3.5 4.0 4.5 5.0 4.5 4.0 3.5
3.0 2.5 2.0 1.5 1.0 0.5]
This one is a little more interesting; it's a linear interpolator.
Does that help? Maybe the "trick" is in the zero-stuffing step?
Fred

might you understand how an FIR filter could give you a frequency response
that is mostly flat in magnitude and has a mostly linear phase response that
represents a delay of half of the FIR length plus a little more (a fraction
of a sample time) delay that can been specified in advance?
once you get that, then add the concept of "polyphase" (which is just a set
of FIR filters, each resulting in a different fractional sample delay) and
you got interpolation to the precision of how many polyphase FIR filters in
your set. to get even closer, there is the good, old-fashioned linear
interpolation (between these finite polyphase filter delays).

Hi
Can anyone please explain me about Interpolation using FIR filters? I
dont understand how they can be used for interpolation.
Thanks
