Digital FIR Filter Design using Windowing Method
A linear phase finite impulse response(FIR) filter was designed using Scilab. Filters like stop band and pass band attenuation and stop band and pass band frequency are taken as input from the user.There are different window functions that can be used like Hamming Window, Bartlet Window, Hanning Window, Blackman Window,etc. The window function used in this experiment is Hanning window.the formula is input in the Scilab code and then the program is executed.
The window function is selected based upon the value of the passband attenuation.
ReplyDeleteRectangular window has lowest attenuation and blackman has highest attenuation
DeleteGood explanation
ReplyDeleteAs we go from rectangular window function to hanning window, we get smoother response which reduces Gibbs phenomenon.
ReplyDeleteTrue
DeleteBlackman window has maximum attenuation
ReplyDeleteYes that's why it's the best
DeleteAmazing explanation.
ReplyDeleteThank you
DeleteMore memory required for the storage
ReplyDeleteof coefficients of FIR filter
Blackman window is the best for designing higher order precise filters due to its high value of As.
ReplyDeleteThats right
DeleteIt is preferred for wideband signals
ReplyDeleteWindowing function decides shape of the output signal.
ReplyDeleteYes. An example is rectangular window is a sinc function
DeleteTransition width should be small, so order will be small and cost will reduce
