usage of z directly

Started by Appalayagari Sreedhar November 22, 2002
Hi,

in the implementation of the filter

H(z) = (sigma)h(n)z^-n;

is it possible to directly use this expression and obtain the frequency response
in z domain.

thanks in advance.

Sure, but the "frequency response" of a filter is the z-transform evaluated
along the unit circle, where z = exp(j*w), w from -pi to pi. So the frequency
response is
H(w) = summation over n of h(n)*exp(j*w*n).

This is all you need to evaluate the frequency response of your filter. Sincerely,
