FIR Filter Design Techniques Abstract This report deals with some of the techniques used to design FIR filters. In the beginning, the windowing method and the frequency sampling methods are discussed in detail with their merits and demerits. Different optimization techniques involved in FIR filter design are also covered, including Rabiner’s method for FIR filter design. These optimization techniques reduce the error caused by frequency sampling technique at the non-sampled frequency points. A brief discussion of some techniques used by filter design packages like Matlab are also included. Introduction FIR filters are filters having a transfer function of a polynomial in z and is an all-zero filter in the sense that the zeroes in the z-plane determine the frequency response magnitude characteristic.The z transform of a N-point FIR filter is given by (1) FIR filters are particularly useful for applications where exact linear phase response is required. The FIR filter is generally implemented in a non-recursive way which guarantees a stable filter. FIR filter design essentially consists of two parts (i) approximation problem (ii) realization problem The approximation stage takes the specification and gives a transfer function through four steps. They are as follows: (i) A desired or ideal response is chosen, usually in the frequency domain. (ii) An allowed class of filters is chosen (e.g.the length N for a FIR filters). (iii) A measure of the quality of approximation is chosen. (iv) A method or algorithm is selected to find the best filter transfer function. The realization part deals with choosing the structure to implement the transfer function which may be in the form of circuit diagram or in the form of a program. There are essentially three well-known methods for FIR filter design namely: (1) The window method (2) The frequency sampling technique (3) Optimal filter design methods The Window Method In this method, [Park87
