Digital Signal Processing Module Module-16:Finite Impulse Response (FIR) Digital Filters Objectives: • To understand the concept of linear phase • To know the method of identifying the linear phase filter from its impulse response • To know the ways of identifying various types of linear phase filters • To understand the characteristics of FIR digital filters • To understand the frequency response of FIR filters • To differentiate between FIR and IIR filters based on various Characteristics Introduction: ❖ Linear Time Invariant systems can be classified according to whether the unit sample response sequence is of finite duration or is of infinite duration i.e. whether or not it has only a finite number of non zero terms. ❖ If the unit sample response sequence of the LTI system is of finite duration, the system is referred to as Finite Impulse Response system. ❖ The system with unit sample response ℎ(푛) = 푎푛푢(푛) is an example for IIR system and the system with unit sample response ℎ(푛) = 2 푓표푟 푛 = −1, 1 { 1 푓표푟 푛 = 0 } is an example for FIR system. 0 표푡ℎ푒푟푤푖푠푒 ∞ ❖ The response 푦(푛) for an input of 푥(푛) has the form 푦(푛) = ∑푘=−∞ 푥(푛 − 푘)ℎ(푘) = 푥(푛 + 1)ℎ(−1) + 푥(푛)ℎ(0) + 푥(푛 − 1)ℎ(1) = 2푥(푛 + 1) + 푥(푛) + 2푥(푛 − 1) This is the difference equation or recurrence relation expressing 푦(푛) in terms of the input only. It does not depend on other output values. ❖ A discrete LTI system can be described by the Nth order linear constant coefficient difference equation as 푁 푀 ∑푘=0 푎푘 푦(푛 − 푘) = ∑푚=0 푏푚 푥(푛 − 푚) ----(1) 1 푁 푀 ❖ From the above eqn., 푦(푛) = [− ∑푘=1 푎푘 푦(푛 − 푘) + ∑푚=0 푏푚 푥(푛 − 푎0 푚)] ---(2) ❖ If some 푎푘, 1 ≤ 푘 ≤ 푁 푖푠 푛표푛 푧푒푟표, the system represented by above eqn. Is an IIR system. ❖ If some 푎푘 = 0, 1 ≤ 푘 ≤ 푁, the above eqn. becomes 푦(푛) = 푀 푏푚 ∑푚=0 푥(푛 − 푚) --(3) 푎0 ∞ ❖ Comparing this eqn. with 푦(푛) = ∑푚=−∞ ℎ(푚)푥(푛 − 푚), 푏푚 푓표푟 푚 = 0,1, … 푀 ℎ(푚) = [ 푎0 ] which is an FIR system ---(4) 0 표푡ℎ푒푟푤푖푠푒 ❖ A discrete LTI is stable if and only if its unit sample response is absolutely summable i.e. ∞ ∑푘=−∞|ℎ(푘)| < ∞ ---(5) ❖ An FIR system described by eqn.(1) when 푎푘 = 0, 푘 = 1,2, … , 푁 is always stable since there are only a finite number of non zero samples h(n) and the series in eqn.(5) always converges. ❖ For any system to be physically realizable, it should be causal. ❖ A LTI system can be checked for causality by using the condition ℎ(푛) = 0 푓표푟 푛 < 0 , where h(n) is the unit sample response of the system. ❖ In the case of an FIR filter, even though h(n) is non causal, it can be sufficiently delayed to obtain a causal sequence( because of its finite length) representing a realizable filter. Thus, a realizable filter can always be obtained for an FIR filter. concept of Linear Phase: ➢ An ideal filter shows perfect transmission in the pass band and perfect ejection in the stop band ➢ Perfect transmission implies a transfer function with constant gain and linear phase over the pass band. ➢ The corresponding transfer Function can be given as 퐻(푓) = 퐾. 푒−푗푛휔, over the pass band, where 휔 = 2휋푓 ➢ The gain of a filter is given by |퐻(푓)| ➢ Constant gain 퐾 ensures that the output is an amplitude scaled replica of the input. ➢ If the gain is not constant over the required frequency range, it results in amplitude distortion ➢ The phase response of the filter is 휑(휔) = −휔푛. Linear phase ensures that the output is a time shifted replica of the input. ➢ If the phase shift is not linear with frequency, it results in Phase distortion, as the signal undergoes different delays for different frequencies. ➢ The DC gain of the filter will be at 푓 = 0 표푟 휔 = 0 and the high frequency gain is at 푓 = 0.5 표푟 휔 = 휋 . ➢ Computation of DC gain: ▪ 퐻(푧)푎푡 푧 = 1 ▪ 퐻(휔)푎푡 푓 = 0 표푟 휔 = 0 ▪ 퐻(0) = ∑ ℎ(푛) ▪ Ratio of sum of the RHS coefficients to that of LHS coefficients of the difference equation, where RHS refers to excitation and LHS refers to the response ➢ Computation of High Frequency gain: ▪ 퐻(푧)푎푡 푧 = −1 ▪ 퐻(휔) 푎푡 푓 = 0.5 표푟 휔 = 휋 푛 ▪ 퐻(휔)|휔=0.5 = ∑(−1) ℎ(푛) ▪ 푅푒푣푒푟푠푒 푡ℎ푒 푠푖푔푛 표푓 푎푙푡푒푟푛푎푡푒 푐표푒푓푓푖푐푖푒푛푡푠 표푓 푅퐻푆 푎푛푑 퐿퐻푆 표푓 푡ℎ푒 푑푖푓푓푒푟푒푛푐푒 푒푞푢푎푡푖표푛 푎푛푑 푡푎푘푒 푡ℎ푒 푟푎푡푖표 표푓 푡ℎ푒푖푟 푠푢푚 ➢ Phase delay of a sinusoid 푥(푡) = 퐴. cos(휔0푡 + 휃) = 퐴. cos [휔0(푡 − 푡푝)] is the quantity 휃 푡푝 = − and describes the time delay in the signal caused by a phase shift 휔0 of ‘휃′ 1 퐻(푓0) ➢ Phase delay of a digital filter is defined as 푡푝(푓0) = − . 2휋 푓0 ➢ Ex. 푐표푛푠푖푑푒푟 푦(푛) = 푥(푛) + 푥(푛 − 1) 푗휔 2 휔 − ⁄ . 푇ℎ푒 푐표푟푟푒푠푝표푛푑푖푛푔 퐻(휔) = 4퐶표푠 ( ) . 푒 2. 2 푇ℎ푢푠, 푡ℎ푒 푝ℎ푎푠푒 푟푒푠푝표푛푠푒 푖푠휃(휔) = 휔 휃(휔) 1 − . 푇ℎ푒 푐표푟푟푒푠푝표푛푑푖푛푔 푝ℎ푎푠푒 푑푒푙푎푦 푖푠 = .

FIR filters and Linear Phase: ▪ The DTFT of a filter whose impulse response is symmetric about the origin is purely real or purely imaginary. ▪ The phase of such a filter is thus piecewise constant ▪ If the symmetric sequence is shifted (to make it causal), the phase is augmented by a linear phase term and becomes piecewise linear ▪ Generally, a filter whose impulse response is symmetric about its midpoint is termed as Linear Phase Filter. ▪ Linearity in phase results in a pure time delay with no amplitude distortion. ▪ An FIR filter with an impulse response symmetric about the midpoint will have linear phase and provides constant delay. ▪ For the sequence h(n) to be of finite length, the poles must lie at the origin. ▪ Sequences that are symmetric about the origin also require ℎ(푛) = ±ℎ(푛) 1 , which implies 퐻(푧) = ±퐻( ) 푧 ▪ The zeros of a linear phase sequence must occur in reciprocal pairs(conjugate pairs if complex to ensure real coefficients) Classification of Linear Phase Sequences ➢ The length N of finite symmetric sequences can be odd or even, since the center of symmetry may fall on a sample point (for odd N) or midway between samples (for even N).

Low frequencies require large volumes of air 30 to be moved, requiring diaphragms with a large surface 36 3 4 area. Such large diaphragms would be unsuitable for 100 1 .10 1 .10 high frequencies because the large mass of the Frequency, Hz diaphragm could not be efficiently accelerated to the Low required velocities.

Four engineers, working part time or full time with mastering, were interviewed in order to gain information about their thoughts and opinions on the subject. Meaning condensation was used to analyze the interviews. Results showed usage of and opinions on linear phase equalizers varied among the engineers. Some special areas suitable for linear phase equalization were brought up. Pre-ringing seemed to be an artifact that made two of the engineers avoid linear phase equalizing for most of their work.

Nibras Othman Abdul Wahid Assistant Lecturer. Ali Adil Ali Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research, Lecturer Ali Subhi Abbod University of Diyala, Diyala/ Iraq Abstract Digital filters are elementary elements of Digital Signal Processing (DSP) scheme since they are extensively employed in numerous DSP applications. Finite Impulse Response (FIR) digital filter design has multiple factor optimizing, in which the current optimizing method does not work proficiently. Swarm intelligence is a technique that forms the population of interrelated suitable agents or swarms for self-organization. A Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) that stands for a populating and optimizing scheme with adaptively nonlinear functions in multidimensional space is a distinctive model of a swarm system. The goal of this study is to explain a scheme of designing Linear Phase FIR filter based on an improved PSO algorithm called Modified Particle Swarm Optimization (MPSO). The simulated outcomes of this paper demonstrate that the MPSO method is finer than the conformist Genetic Algorithm (GA) in addition to the standard PSO algorithm with extra fast convergence rate and superior performance of the designed 30th order band pass FIR filter. The FIR filter design by means of MPSO Algorithm is simulated using MATLAB programming language version 7.14.0.739 (R2012a).

This chapter explains how to apply the filter design tools to Infinite Impulse Response (IIR) and Finite Impulse Response (FIR) filter design problems. The goal of filter design is to perform frequency dependent alteration of a data sequence. A possible requirement might be to remove noise above 30 Hz from a data sequence sampled at 100 Hz. A more rigorous specification might call for a specific amount of passband ripple, stopband attenuation, or transition width. A very precise specification could ask to achieve the performance goals with the minimum filter order, or it could call for an arbitrary magnitude shape, or it might require an FIR filter. Filter design methods differ primarily in how performance is specified. For “loosely specified” requirements, as in the first case above, a Butterworth IIR filter is often sufficient. To design a fifth-order 30 Hz lowpass Butterworth filter and apply it to the data in vector x, [b,a] = butter(5,30/50); y = filter(b,a,x); The second input argument to butter indicates the cutoff frequency, normal- ized to half the sampling frequency (the Nyquist frequency).

    DIGITAL FILTERS SECTION 6 DIGITAL FILTERS I Finite Impulse Response (FIR) Filters I Infinite Impulse Response (IIR) Filters I Multirate Filters I Adaptive Filters 6.a DIGITAL FILTERS 6.b DIGITAL FILTERS SECTION 6 DIGITAL FILTERS Walt Kester INTRODUCTION Digital filtering is one of the most powerful tools of DSP. Apart from the obvious advantages of virtually eliminating errors in the filter associated with passive component fluctuations over time and temperature, op amp drift (active filters), etc., digital filters are capable of performance specifications that would, at best, be extremely difficult, if not impossible, to achieve with an analog implementation. In addition, the characteristics of a digital filter can be easily changed under software control. Therefore, they are widely used in adaptive filtering applications in communications such as echo cancellation in modems, noise cancellation, and speech recognition. The actual procedure for designing digital filters has the same fundamental elements as that for analog filters. First, the desired filter responses are characterized, and the filter parameters are then calculated. Characteristics such as amplitude and phase response are derived in the same way. The key difference between analog and digital filters is that instead of calculating resistor, capacitor, and inductor values for an analog filter, coefficient values are calculated for a digital filter. So for the digital filter, numbers replace the physical resistor and capacitor components of the analog filter. These numbers reside in a memory as filter coefficients and are used with the sampled data values from the ADC to perform the filter calculations. The real-time digital filter, because it is a discrete time function, works with digitized data as opposed to a continuous waveform, and a new data point is acquired each sampling period.

  • Design of Linear Phase FIR Notch Filters
    Sadhan& Vol. 15, Part 3, November 1990, pp. 133-155. © Printed in India. Design of linear phase FIR notch filters TIAN-HU YU, SANJIT K MITRA and HRVOJE BABIC t Signal and Image Processing Laboratory, Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, University of California at Santa Barbara, Santa Barbara, CA 93106, USA tElectrotcchnical Faculty, University of Zagreb, Zagreb, Yugoslavia Abstract. This paper investigates some approaches for designing one- dimensional linear phase finite-duration impulse-responses (FIR) notch filters, which are based on the modification of several established design techniques of linear phase FIR band-selective filters. Based on extensive design examples and theoretical analysis, formulae have been developed for estimating the length of a linear phase FIR notch filter meeting the given specifications. In addition, the design of two-dimensional linear phase FIR notch filters is briefly considered. Illustrative examples are included. Keywords. Fig digital filter; digital filter design; digital notch filter. 1. Introduction The notch filter, which highly attenuates a particular frequency component in the input signal while leaving nearby frequency components relatively unchanged, is used in many applications. For example, the elimination of a sinusoidal interference corrupting a signal, such as the 60 Hz power-line interference in the design of a digital instrumentation system, is typically accomplished with a notch filter tuned to the frequency of the interference. Usually very narrow notch characteristic (width) is desired to filter out the single trequency or sinusoidal interference without distorting the signal. The design of infinite-duration impulse response (nR) notch filters has been considered by Carney (1963) and later by Hirano et al (1974).

Despite numerous proofs are available in the literature, they are usually incomplete, even though the result is commonly used by the signal processing community.
