Stable IIR notch filter design with optimal pole placement

This paper presents a two-stage approach for designing an infinite impulse response (IIR) notch filter. First, the numerator of the transfer function of the IIR notch filter is obtained by placing the zeros at the prescribed notch frequencies. Then, the denominator polynomial is determined by using an iterative scheme in which the optimal pole placements are found by solving a standard quadratic programming problem. For stability, the pole radius in the single notch filter design is specified by the designer, and in the multiple notch filter design, the pole radius is constrained by using the implications of Rouche's theorem. Examples are included to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed techniques     

General IIR optical filter design for WDM applications usingall-pass filters

A general design algorithm is presented for infinite impulse response (IIR) bandpass and arbitrary magnitude response filters that use optical all-pass filters as building blocks. Examples are given for an IIR multichannel frequency selector, an amplifier gain equalizer, a linear square-magnitude response, and a multi-level response. Major advantages are the efficiency of the IIR filter compared to finite impulse response (FIR) filters, the simplicity of the optical architecture, and its tolerance for loss. A reduced set of unique operating states is discussed for implementing a reconfigurable multichannel selection filter     

Weighted least-squares approximation of FIR by IIR digital filters

This paper presents a method for the weighted least-squares approximation of finite impulse response (FIR) filters by infinite impulse response (IIR) filters. It is shown, how a solution to this approximation problem can be obtained by solving a related pure least-squares approximation problem. For the latter, we utilize a generalized version of a previously published technique with low computational complexity and guaranteed stability of the IIR filters. Unlike the well-established model-reduction approaches that are carried out in the state space, our method works directly with the numerator and denominator coefficients of the transfer functions. Thus, the influence of finite-precision arithmetic on the results is small. This makes our approach applicable for the approximation of large-order FIR filters and allows the usage of arbitrarily shaped weighting functions. It is shown that our method can successfully be employed to achieve a uniform approximation     

Rational sampling filter banks based on IIR filters

The problem of splitting the spectrum of a digital signal by using nonuniform infinite impulse response (IIR) filter banks is addressed. Near perfect reconstruction (NPR) is considered. The method uses the modulation of different IIR prototypes. The cancellation of the main aliasing components constrains the prototypes to be dependent on each other. By using this approach, linear-phase prototypes are needed, and noncausal filtering is required. Numerical examples of filter bank design are given, and the computational complexity is compared with the finite impulse response (FIR) case     

A new approach to the design of complex all-pass IIR digital filters

A new method is proposed for designing complex all-pass IIR filters, the all-pass IIR filters with complex coefficients, in this paper. By minimizing the integration of certain square phase error over interested frequencies, an eigenvector of an appropriate real, symmetric and positive-definite matrix is computed to get the filter coefficients. The stability is achieved by specifying properly the desired phase specifications. If an appropriate iterative process is used, equiripple complex all-pass filter design can be obtained. The method is simple and the performance is comparable to the existing methods. Several examples are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the approach.     

A design of linear-phased IIR Nyquist filters

This paper discusses a new method of designing linear-phased IIR Nyquist filters with zero intersymbol interference. The filters designed by this method possess linear-phase characteristics and are lower in order than other Nyquist filters designed by existing methods. Expressions are derived for zero-phased IIR Nyquist filters and efficient design methods are examined for them. The opted design method is based on an iteration process, and in each iteration step a modified version of the Remez exchange algorithm is used. In addition, the implementation of the designed zero-phased IIR filters is considered. Finally, the proposed design method is demonstrated through various design examples

Design of linear-phase IIR filters via impulse-response gramians

A new method for the design of a linear-phase infinite-impulse-response (IIR) filter is presented. It involves designing a finite-impulse-response (FIR) filter satisfying the given frequency response specifications and subsequently obtaining a significantly lower order IIR filter using model reduction based on impulse-response gramians. The general outline of the method and a brief overview of the existing linear-phase FIR filter design and model-reduction techniques are presented. The impulse-response gramian and the model-reduction algorithm used are presented. The method is illustrated by design examples and is compared with other methods for the design of linear-phase IIR filters using equalizers     

Design of low-order linear-phase IIR filters via orthogonalprojection

This paper presents an indirect linear-phase IIR filter design technique based on a reduction of linear-phase FIR filters. The desired filter is obtained by minimizing the L₂ norm of the difference between the original FIR filter and the lower order IIR filter. We first establish a relationship between the Hankel singular values of the discarded part of the FIR filter and the L₂ norm of the corresponding filter approximation error based on model truncation. This result motivates us to propose a simple finite search method that will achieve better approximation results than commonly used truncation methods such as the balanced truncation (BT) and the impulse response gramian (IRG) methods. We then develop an iterative algorithm for finding an optimal IIR filter based on a matrix projection of the original FIR filter. The convergence of the proposed algorithm is established. Filters designed using the proposed algorithm are compared with those obtained by other techniques with respect to the amplitude response and group delay characteristics in the passband. Numerical examples show that the proposed algorithm offers the best performance

Continuous-time envelope-constrained filter design via DSP approach

In envelope-constrained (EC) filter design, the effect of input noise is minimised subject to the constraint that the filter's response to a specified signal fits into a prescribed envelope. The continuous-time version of this problem has been addressed using orthonormal analogue filters. The paper addresses the EC filter-design problem using a filter comprised of an A/D converter, a digital processor, a D/A converter and an analogue interpolation filter. Numerical results are presented for a number of design examples     

Optimization-based design and implementation of multidimensional zero-phase IIR filters

This paper considers multidimensional infinite-impulse response (IIR) filters that are iteratively implemented. The focus is on zero-phase filters with symmetric polynomials in the numerator and denominator of the multivariable transfer function. A rigorous optimization-based design of the filter is considered. Transfer function magnitude specifications, convergence speed requirements for the iterative implementation, and spatial decay of the filter impulse response (which defines the boundary condition influence in the spatial domain of the filtered signal) are all formulated as optimization constraints. When the denominator of the zero-phase IIR filter is strictly positive, these frequency domain specifications can be cast as a linear program and then efficiently solved. The method is illustrated with two two-dimensional IIR filter design examples.

Chebyshev approximation problem of multidimensional IIR digital filters in the frequency domain

This paper investigates the problem of simultaneous approximation of a prescribed multidimensional frequency response. The frequency responses of multidimensional IIR digital filters are used as nonlinear approximating functions. Chebyshev approximation theory and the notion of line homotopy are used to reveal the approximation properties of this set of IIR functions. A sign condition is derived to characterize a convex stable domain in this set. This sign condition can be incorporated into the optimization of the Chebyshev simultaneous approximation. The generally sufficient global Kolmogorov criterion is shown to be a necessary condition, for the characterization of best approximation, in the considered set of approximating functions. Thus, it can be incorporated, as a stopping constraint, in the design of the optimal filter. Moreover, the local Kolmogorov criterion is shown to be also necessary for the set of approximating functions. Finally, it is proved that the best approximation is a global minimum.

     

Stack filter design: a structural approach

A new approach is developed for finding the optimal stack filter that minimizes noise subject to constraints on its structural behavior. Based on the output moments of stack filters, it is proven that the optimal stack filter is a combination of the median filter, which has the same window width as the stack filter, and a set of maximum and minimum filters, which are attributed to the structural constraints. Design examples for 1-D signal processing and image processing are provided     

Optimal Hankel-norm approximation of continuous-time linear systems

A problem on optimal approximation of continuous-time linear systems is studied. The performance measure (error) is chosen to be the spectral norm of the difference between the Hankel operators associated with the original system and the approximant. It is shown that the Hankel operators associated with continuous-time systems and the Hankel matrices associated with discrete-time systems are related by an interesting correspondence property via bilinear transforms. This fact is then used to derive the continuous-time results (theory and algorithms) from the established discrete-time ones. Some simple examples are presented.This research was supported by the Army Research Office under Grant No. DAAG 29-79-C-0054, and by the National Science Foundation Grant No. ENG-7908673, and by the Office of Naval Research under Contract No. N000-14-81-K-0191.Formerly with the Department of Electrical Engineering-Systems, University of Southern California, Los Angeles, California 90007, USA     

Minimax design of two-channel nonuniform-division filterbanks using IIR allpass filters

The design of two-channel linear-phase nonuniform-division filter (NDF) banks constructed by infinite impulse response (IIR) digital allpass filters (DAFs) in the sense of L/sub /spl infin// error criteria is considered. First, the theory of two-channel NDF bank structures using two IIR DAFs is developed. Then, the design problem is appropriately formulated to result in a simple optimization problem. Utilizing a variant of Karmarkar's algorithm, we can efficiently solve the optimization problem through a frequency sampling and iterative approximation method to find the coefficients for the IIR DAFs. The resulting two-channel NDF banks can possess approximately linear-phase response without magnitude distortion. The effectiveness of the proposed technique is achieved by forming an appropriate Chebyshev approximation of a desired phase response and then to find its solution from a linear subspace in a few iterations. Several simulation examples are presented for illustration and comparison.     

A state space approach to the design of globally optimal FIR energycompaction filters

We introduce a new approach for the least squared optimization of a weighted FIR filter of arbitrary order N under the constraint that its magnitude squared response be Nyquist(M). Although the new formulation is general enough to cover a wide variety of applications, the focus of the paper is on optimal energy compaction filters. The optimization of such filters has received considerable attention in the past due to the fact that they are the main building blocks in the design of principal component filter banks (PCFBs). The newly proposed method finds the optimum product filter F_opt(z)=H_opt(Z)H_opt (z^-1) corresponding to the compaction filter H_opt (z). By expressing F(z) in the form D(z)+D(z^-1), we show that the compaction problem can be completely parameterized in terms of the state-space realization of the causal function D(z). For a given input power spectrum, the resulting filter F_opt(z) is guaranteed to be a global optimum solution due to the convexity of the new formulation. The new algorithm is universal in the sense that it works for any M, arbitrary filter length N, and any given input power spectrum. Furthermore, additional linear constraints such as wavelets regularity constraints can be incorporated into the design problem. Finally, obtaining H_opt(z) from F_opt(z) does not require an additional spectral factorization step. The minimum-phase spectral factor H_min(z) can be obtained automatically by relating the state space realization of D_opt(z) to that of H _opt(z)
