Digital filter structures having low errors and simple hardware implementation

Sensitivity and roundoff errors can seriously limit the application of recursive digital filters in practice, particularly when the filters have poles near z = + 1. A filter structure, based on digital incremental computers is proposed, which has low sensitivity, good error characteristics, and simple hardware implementation for pole locations close to z = + 1. Expressions for the roundoff errors are derived and compared to those for conventional structures. A design procedure is suggested to implement the new filter structure given the transfer function. Simulation results are presented.

A structure suitable for implementing digital filters with poles near z = +1

Errors limiting the application of recursive digital filters which have poles near z = +1 are considered, and a filter structure for pole locations close to z = +1 is proposed. The filter structure, based on digital incremental computers, has low sensitivity and good error characteristics for pole locations near z = +1. Expressions for the roundoff error are derived, and errors associated with the proposed structure and a conventional structure are compared. A design procedure is suggested for implementing the new filter structure when the transfer function is given. Simulation results are presented.

On least-squares design of recursive digital filters

Time-domain methods for the design of recursive digital filters using a squared error criterion are compared with a frequency-domain technique. Levy's method, which has been used to estimate transfer functions of continuous-time systems is modified to obtain design equations for digital filters. A special case of Levy's method is shown to be essentially equivalent to the time-domain methods.

On the design of recursive digital filters

A change of variables is described which transforms the problem of designing a recursive digital filter to that of approximation by a ratio of polynomials on a finite interval. Some analytic techniques for the design of low-pass filters are presented, illustrating the use of the transformation. Also considered are methods for the design of phase equalizers.

Comments on 'Synthesis of spectrum shaping digital filters of recursive design'

The problem of designing recursive digital filters can be reduced to polynomial approximation on a finite interval. The procedure to demonstrate this equivalence described in a recent paper yielded filters with multiple poles. An alternative method is described which avoids this restriction.
