Digital Signal Processing - Assignment 7

Due date: Submit answers to Part A during tutorial on 12 March (Wednesday). Upload the results of Part B as a text/pdf document by Thursday (13 March 2014) midnight. Part A 1. Consider cascading 2 digital filters h1[n] and h2[n]. Assume each of these was designed by an impulse invariance method. Let h[n] and h(t) be the impulse response of the cascaded analog and digital filters, respectively. Is h(t=nT) = h[n]? Explain. 2. Show that the transfer function of a FIR filter can be expressed as

H ( z)

1 z M M
jk

M 1

k 0

1 z W

H [k ] 1

k M

where H[k] is a M-point DFT and H [ k ] H d ( e (desired) filter.

) ; Hd is the transfer function of the specified

3. A filter H(z) is said to be a minimum phase filter if and only if all its zeros lie on or inside the unit circle. It is said to be an allpass filter if |H(z = ej)| = 1 for || a. H(z) is a FIR filter of order N=2. Can this also be a minimum phase or an allpass filter? If yes, provide an example, if No explain. b. Consider H ( z )

Part B 5. A lowpass filter is to be designed to meet the following specs: fp = 1kHz; fs = 2 kHz; sampling frequency is 10KHz. Stopband attenuation is 50dB and passband attenuation is 1 dB. a. Design the above using impulse invariance method using Butterworth and Elliptic prototypes filters. b. Design an optimal FIR filter to meet the above specs . c. Find and plot the group delay of the designed filter. You can use grpdelay routine for instance. Which of the filters has the best (almost constant) group delay in the passband? Express it in number of samples. d. Filter the signal x[n] 3 sin( 0.3n ) sin( 0.09n ) 0.6 sin( 0.15n ); 0 n 100. with each of your filter and comment on your results with respect to what components are passed/blocked and any distortion present. 6. a. A given lowpass filter can be transformed to a highpass filter using a simple transformation. Find this transformation (read any book/wiki) and convert the IIR filter (Butterworth) in the previous question to a highpass filter. b. Design two LPFs and combine them to create a bandpass filter (BPF) such that only the sin(0.09n) component is passed by the BPF.
