  Digital signal processing - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
DSP and analog signal processing are subfields of signal processing.
A filter may also be described as a difference equation, a collection of zeroes and poles or, if it is an FIR filter, an impulse response or step response.
Filters can also be represented by block diagrams which can then be used to derive a sample processing algorithm to implement the filter using hardware instructions.

 Electronic filter - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A filter in which the signal passes through an inductor, or in which a capacitor provides a path to earth, therefore presents less attenuation to low-frequency signals than high-frequency signals and is a low-pass filter.
Active filters are implemented using a combination of passive and active (amplifying) components.
Electrical signals are converted to a mechanical wave in a piezoelectric crystal; this wave is delayed as it propagates across the crystal, before being converted back to an electrical signal by further electrodes.

 Filter Design (Signal Processing Toolbox)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
The filters are optimal in the sense that they minimize the maximum error between the desired frequency response and the actual frequency response; they are sometimes called minimax filters.
Another possibility is a filter that has as a transition region the line connecting the passband with the stopband; this can help control "runaway" magnitude response in wide transition regions.
Differentiation of a signal in the time domain is equivalent to multiplication of the signal's Fourier transform by an imaginary ramp function.

The simplest electronic implementations of linear filters are based on combinations of (An electrical device that resists the flow of electrical current) resistors, (An electrical device that introduces inductance into a circuit) inductors and (An electrical device characterized by its capacity to store an electric charge) capacitors.
A filter is said to have a high Q if it selects or rejects a narrow range of frequencies compared with the absolute frequency at which it operates.

 Bandwidth - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
For instance, this signal would require a lowpass filter with cutoff frequency of at least W to stay intact.
The bandwidth of an electronic filter is the part of the filter's frequency response that lies within 3 dB compared to the center frequency of its peak.
In signal processing and control theory, the bandwidth is the frequency at which the closed-loop system gain drops to −3 dB.

 Signal Processing
Users are able to sketch and resize their own filters or use previously generated filters and see how each filter affects the scaling of a subregion of an image.
Two key properties that we rely on in signal processing are "linearity" and "spatial invariance".
Two box functions are displayed on a signal graph and their area of overlap (which, for the box function, corresponds to the value of the convolution at a particular point) is shaded.

 Digital Signal Processing Filter Terminology
Filter attenuation is the ratio, at a given frequency, of the signal amplitude at the output of the filter over the signal amplitude at the input of the filter, defined as
For an FIR filter, the filter coefficients are, by definition, the impulse response of the filter.
With a constant group delay of 0.04 seconds, the 1 Hz input sinewave is delayed at the filter output by 0.25 radians, the 3 Hz sinewave is delayed by 0.75 radians, the 5 Hz sinewave by 1.25 radians, and the 7 Hz sinewave by 1.75 radians.

 Signal Processing Laboratory
We believe that signal processing is not merely limited to the acquisition, filtering, prediction, enhancement, processing, analysis, compression, or display of data.
We view Signal Processing as a key technology, the usefulness of which is best perceived when applied and put to use in concrete engineering or multidisciplinary problems.
Signal processing is in itself multidisciplinary: it is closely related to information theory, control and system theory, probability and statistics, computational mathematics, numerical analysis, matrix analysis, and applied functional and harmonic analysis.

The Wiener filter is a filter (signal processing) proposed by Norbert Wiener during the 1940s and published 1.
By creating a filter that filters only on the frequency domain it is possible for the filter to pass noise.
The input to the Wiener filter is assumed to be additive noise.

 Intro. to Signal Processing:Fourier filter   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
The Fourier filter is a type of filtering or smoothing function that is based on the frequency components of a signal.
The assumption is made here that the frequency components of the signal fall predominantly at low frequencies and those of the noise fall predominantly at high frequencies.
The signal at the top left seems to be only random noise, but its power spectrum (top right) shows that high-frequency components dominate the signal.

 OTL - File # 3301
The filter provides a region of silence, where there is no audio signal, without significantly affecting the audio signal in another region in any environment (e.g., rooms, cars, etc.).
The method obtains a filter by: (i) measuring the room acoustical responses at multiple seating positions, and (ii) applying the measured responses to a Digital Signal Processing algorithm for computing the desired filter.
The filter, once determined, does not need to be recomputed unless significant changes occur in the environment.

 DIGITAL SIGNAL PROCESSING AND DIGITAL FILTER DESIGN
When these filters are implemented on Digital Signal Processor with a special purpose-hardware, each filter coefficient has to be represented by a finite number of bits 'b' smaller than that used on a computer.
The simplest and the most widely used approach to the problem is the rounding of the optimal infinite precision coefficients to its 'b' bits representation.
However, the filters obtained are degraded and in most case there exists another set of finite word length coefficients which gives the best Chebyshev approximation to the desired frequency response 'HD(ejw)'.

A particular strength is in digital filtering: DSPworks takes specified digital filters and allows them to be applied to generated or recorded signals.

It is particularly well suited to testing of digital filters in simulation and on the target hardware.
