Single pole digital filter tutorial

3F3 Digital Signal Processing Section 2: Digital Filters • A filter is a device which passes some signals 'more' than others (`selectivity'), e.g. a sinewave of one frequency more than one at another frequency. • We will deal with linear time-invariant (LTI) digital filters.

Filters have many practical applications. A simple, single-pole, low-pass filter (the integrator) is often used to stabilize amplifiers by rolling off the gain at higher frequencies where excessive phase shift may cause oscillations. A simple, single-pole, high-pass filter can be used to block dc offset in high gain Introduction. In the last posts I reviewed how to use the Python scipy.signal package to design digital infinite impulse response (IIR) filters, specifically, using the iirdesign function (IIR design I and IIR design II).In this post I am going to conclude the IIR filter design review with an example. The filter has a pole at , in the plane (and a zero at = 0). Notice that the one-pole exhibits either a lowpass or a highpass frequency response, like the one-zero. The lowpass character occurs when the pole is near the point , which happens when approaches . Conversely, the highpass nature occurs when is positive. CIC Filter Introduction Matthew P. Donadio m.p.donadio@ieee.org 18 July 2000 For Free Publication by Iowegian 1 Introduction As data converters become faster and faster, the application of narrow-band extraction from wideband sources, and narrow-band construction of wideband signals is becoming more important. Design of Digital Filters In fact, for FIR lter design we usually design h[n] directly, rather than starting from a pole-zero plot. (An exception would be notch lters.) 8.2.1 Symmetric and antisymmetric FIR lters I focus on the symmetric case.
