Design Of 2-D Recursive Digital Filters Using Nonsymmetric Half-Plane Allpass Filters

A novel structure using recursive nonsymmetric half-plane (NSHP) digital allpass filters (DAFs) is presented for designing 2-D recursive digital filters. First, several important properties of 2-D recursive DAFs with NSHP support regions for filter coefficients are investigated. The stability of the 2-D recursive NSHP DAFs is guaranteed by using a spectral factorization-based algorithm. Then, the important characteristics regarding the proposed novel structure are discussed. The design problem of 2-D recursive digital filters using the novel structure is considered. We formulate the problem by forming an objective function consisting of the weighted sum of magnitude, group delay, and stability-related errors. A design technique using a trust-region Newton-conjugate gradient method in conjunction with the analytic derivatives of the objective function is presented to efficiently solve the resulting optimization problem. The novelty of the presented 2-D structure is that it possesses the advantage of better performance in designing a variety of 2-D recursive digital filters over existing 2-D filter structures. Finally, several design examples are provided for conducting illustration and comparison.     

A novel first-order log-domain allpass filter

This paper proposes a first-order allpass log-domain filter, which is systematically derived using the state-space synthesis procedure. To the best knowledge of the authors, the filter is the first log-domain first-order allpass filter in the literature. The proposed filter has a simple structure and can be electronically tuned. PSPICE simulations are given to confirm the theoretical analysis.     

Design of zero-phase recursive 2-D variable filters with quadrantal symmetries

The digital filters with adjustable frequency-domain characteristics are called variable filters. Variable filters are useful in the applications where the filter characteristics are needed to be changeable during the course of signal processing. In such cases, if the existing traditional constant filter design techniques are applied to the design of new filters to satisfy the new desired characteristics when necessary, it will take a huge amount of design time. So it is desirable to have an efficient method which can fast obtain the new desired frequency-domain characteristics. Generally speaking, the frequency-domain characteristics of variable filters are determined by a set of spectral parameters such as cutoff frequency, transition bandwidth and passband width. Therefore, the characteristics of variable filters are the multi-dimensional (M-D) functions of such spectral parameters. This paper proposes an efficient technique which simplifies the difficult problem of designing a 2-D variable filter with quadrantally symmetric magnitude characteristics as the simple one that only needs the normal one-dimensional (1-D) constant digital filter designs and 1-D polynomial approximations. In applying such 2-D variable filters, only varying the part of 1-D polynomials can easily obtain new desired frequency-domain characteristics.     

First-order allpass filter and sinusoidal oscillators using DDCCs

A voltage-mode first-order allpass filter using one differential difference current conveyor (DDCC), one grounded capacitor and one floating resistor is presented. No passive component matching constraints are required. Because the output impedance of the proposed allpass filter is low, the output terminal can be directly connected to the next stage. Using the proposed first-order allpass filter as a basic building block, a new quadrature oscillator and even-phase sinusoidal oscillators can be obtained. The simulation results confirm the theoretical analysis.     

一种Farrow结构数字延时滤波器的设计

普通数字延时滤波器虽然结构简单,但系数计算过程复杂,在延时参数快速变化时,系数更新速度无法满足实时性要求,在工程应用上受限制。采用Farrow结构数字延时滤波器能够更加灵活高效地进行分数延时滤波,延时参数改变时,无需重新计算滤波器系数,更容易在现场可编程门阵列(FPGA)上实现。介绍了一种Farrow结构数字延时滤波器,提出采用基于对称结构的滤波器系数求解方法,并经过加权优化,获得最终Farrow滤波器的系数。系数计算过程中,通过对设计所得Farrow滤波器延时精度和误差的分析,调整加权因子的取值和滤波器阶数,进而提高延时精度。计算机仿真结果证明了加权对称系数求解Farrow滤波器系数方法的有效性和实用性。     

Parametric cumulant based phase estimation of 1-D and 2-Dnonminimum phase systems by allpass filtering

This paper proposes a parametric cumulant-based phase-estimation method for one-dimensional (1-D) and two-dimensional (2-D) linear time-invariant (LTI) systems with only non-Gaussian measurements corrupted by additive Gaussian noise. The given measurements are processed by an optimum allpass filter such that a single Mth-order (M⩾3) cumulant of the allpass filter output is maximum in absolute value. It can be shown that the phase of the unknown system of interest is equal to the negative of the phase of the optimum allpass filter except for a linear phase term (a time delay). For the phase estimation of 1-D LTI systems, an iterative 1-D algorithm is proposed to find the optimum allpass filter modeled either by an autoregressive moving average (ARMA) model or by a Fourier series-based model. For the phase estimation of 2-D LTI systems, an iterative 2-D algorithm is proposed that only uses the Fourier series-based allpass model. A performance analysis is then presented for the proposed cumulant-based 1-D and 2-D phase estimation algorithms followed by some simulation results and experimental results with real speech data to justify their efficacy and the analytic results on their performance. Finally, the paper concludes with a discussion and some conclusions     

An efficient approach for the synthesis of 2-D recursive fanfilters using 1-D prototypes

An elliptic approximation-based design approach is proposed for obtaining 2-D recursive fan filters. The 1-D elliptic filter is reduced to a cascade-parallel combination of all-pass sections and is then used as a prototype for fan filter synthesis, resulting in final realization of 2-D transfer functions using allpass filters. It is shown that the synthesis procedure not only gives a filter that has far fewer coefficients but also enjoys a very low computational complexity     

Design of multiplierless elliptic IIR filters with a smallquantization error

We present a new technique for the design of multiplierless IIR elliptic filters. The multiplierless filter has all multiplication constants implemented with a small number of shifters and adders. The proposed technique is based on sensitivity analysis. An analytical expression for amplitude response sensitivity is derived for the filter structures consisting of two allpass subfilters in parallel. It is shown that the amplitude response sensitivity to some constant x can be expressed as a product of the filter reflectance function and the phase sensitivity of the allpass section that implements the constant. The closed-form expressions for the phase sensitivities of the first- and second-order allpass sections are also developed. It is shown in the paper that the (n+1)/2 most sensitive constants can be directly controlled by the transfer function parameters if the transfer function is derived by the bilinear transformation from an elliptic minimal Q-factors (EMQF) analog prototype. This way, (n+1)/2 multiplication constants can be implemented without quantization, leaving the filter characteristic strictly elliptic. This is achieved for a class of low-noise allpass sections and for the wave lattice digital filter as well. The quantization of the remaining (n-1)/2 less-sensitive constants is performed using the phase-tolerance scheme and phase-sensitivity functions. The proposed design technique is straight-forward and, consequently, very fast. The application is demonstrated on the examples of narrowband, wideband, and halfband filters     

Low-sensitivity universal first-order digital filter sections without limit cycles

Two new universal digital structures simultaneously realising at different outputs all types of first-order filter transfer function (lowpass, highpass and allpass) are proposed. The structures use a canonical number of multipliers and delays, are limit-cycle-free and with low sensitivities, and are convenient for VLSI implementation of universal chips.<>     

Noniterative WLS design of allpass variable fractional-delay digital filters

This paper presents a noniterative weighted-least-squares (WLS) method for designing allpass variable fractional-delay (VFD) digital filters. After expressing each coefficient of an allpass VFD filter as a polynomial of the VFD parameter p, we develop a noniterative technique for finding the optimal polynomial coefficients, and show that the allpass VFD filter design problem can be efficiently solved without using any iterative procedure while a closed-form solution can be easily obtained through solving a matrix equation. Compared with the existing iterative WLS method that solves a series of approximately linearized WLS minimization problems, the proposed noniterative one can yield much better design results with significantly reduced computational complexity. Moreover, the new WLS method does not involve any convergence issue.

Complex notch filter design using allpass filter

Complex coefficient IIR notch filter design problems are investigated. The specification of a notch filter is first transformed into that of an allpass filter. An effective approach to the design of this desired allpass filter is developed. The realisation of the proposed notch filter is equivalent to the realisation of an allpass filter. Owing to the mirror-image symmetry relation between the numerator and denominator polynomials of allpass filters, the notch filter can be realised by a computationally efficient lattice structure with very low sensitivity

Two-Dimensional Farrow Structure and the Design of Variable Fractional-Delay 2-D FIR Digital Filters

In this paper, a 2-D Farrow structure is proposed and used to implement variable fractional-delay (VFD) 2-D FIR digital filters. Compared with the existing literature, the desired response of a VFD 2-D digital filter is analyzed in detail, and it is found that there are four types of 2-D symmetric/antisymmetric sequences that need to be used for the design of VFD 2-D FIR digital filters. Moreover, due to the orthogonality among the approach functions, the four types of 2-D sequences can be determined independently, such that the dimension for each computation can be reduced drastically. For simplicity, only the designs of even–even- and odd–odd-order VFD 2-D filters are presented in this paper, and the other cases can be achieved in the same manner. To reveal the coefficient characteristics, the symmetric/antisymmetric properties of filter coefficients and the relationships between coefficients are all tabulated. Also, design examples such as nonseparable circularly symmetric low-pass VFD filters are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.      

Design of separable-denominator 2-D digital filters using the reduced-dimensional decomposition model

A separable-denominator 2-D digital filter (SD-2DDF) can be decomposed into the cascade form of a pair of 1-D digital filters (1DDFs) with different delay elements. Based on this reduced-dimensional decomposition, in this paper, we propose a new technique for designing SD-2DDFs in the spatial domain. The technique determines the coefficient matrices of 1DDFs by nonlinear optimization techniques first, and then a SD-2DDF can be easily synthesized. In addition, since the existent 1-D linear system realization techniques can be used to choose a good starting point for the optimization, extremely accurate design results can be easily achieved.     

Splitting the unit delay [FIR/all pass filters design]

A fractional delay filter is a device for bandlimited interpolation between samples. It finds applications in numerous fields of signal processing, including communications, array processing, speech processing, and music technology. We present a comprehensive review of FIR and allpass filter design techniques for bandlimited approximation of a fractional digital delay. Emphasis is on simple and efficient methods that are well suited for fast coefficient update or continuous control of the delay value. Various new approaches are proposed and several examples are provided to illustrate the performance of the methods. We also discuss the implementation complexity of the algorithms. We focus on four applications where fractional delay filters are needed: synchronization of digital modems, incommensurate sampling rate conversion, high-resolution pitch prediction, and sound synthesis of musical instruments
