  1. Summary of Widowed Fourier Series Method for Calculating FIR Filter Coefficients Step 1: Specify ‘ideal’ or desired frequency response of filter Step 2: Obtain impulse response, hD[n] of the desired filter by evaluating the inverse Fourier Transform as summarized in Table in next slide. Step 3: Select a window function that satisfies the passband or attenuation specifications and then determine the number of coefficients using the appropriate relationship between the filter length and the transition width Step 4: Obtain values of w[n] for the chosen window function and the values of the actual FIR coefficients, h[n] by multiplying hD[n] by w[n]

  2. Summary of ideal impulse response of standard frequency selective filters

  5. Example:Design a low-pass FIR filter to meet the following specs:Pass band edge frequency: 1500 HzTransition width: 500 Hz.Stop-band attenuation AWS= > 50 dBSampling frequency fs = 8000 Hz. • Problem Statement: • Meaning of given specifications are: • Sampling frequency fs = 8000 Hz. • Pass band edge frequency: fc =1500/8000 • Transition width f = 500/8000. • Stop-band attenuation AWS= > 50 dB

  6. Design considerations contd… • The filter function is • Because of stop-band attenuation characteristics, either of the Hamming, • Blackman or, • Kaiser windows • can be used. • We use Hamming window: • whm[n] =0.54 + 0.46 cos{2n/(N-1)}

  7. Design considerations contd… • f = transition band width/sampling frequency = 0.5/8 =0.0625 = 3.3/N. • Thus N = 52.8  53 i.e. for symmetrical window • –26  n  26. • fc’ = fc + f/2 = (1500+ 250)/8000 = 0.21875. • Calculate values of hD [n] and whm[n] for • –26  n  26 • Add 26 to each index so that the indices range from 0 to 52. • Plot the response of the design and verify the specifications.

  8. Calculations: • c = 2fc’= 1.3745 • 2 fc’=1.3745/ = 0.4375 • hD(n) = fc’[sin(nc)/ nc] • wn = [0.54 + 0.46cos(2n/N) • The input signal to the filter function is a series of pulses of known width but of different heights manipulated as per the window function. • The overall is the multiplication of two.

  9. Calculations… h(n) = hD [n] w D[n] = 0.4375 {[sin(nc)/ nc]} x {[0.54 + 0.46cos(2n/N)} at n=0, since sin(nc)/nc = 1, and cos(0) = 1;  h(0) = 0.4375 x[0.54 + 0.46] = 0.4375. Again since 2 fc’ / c = 1/ h(n)= [sin(1.3745n)/n] [0.54 +0.46cos(2n/53)]
