Abstract

The real eigenfilter approach is extended to complex cases for designing arbitrary complex finite impulse response (FIR) filters. By minimizing a quadratic measure of the error in the passband and stopband, a complex eigenvector of an appropriate complex, Hermitian symmetric, and positive-definite matrix is computed to get the filter coefficients. Several arbitrary magnitude and phase FIR filters, such as multiple passband complex filters and staircase-delay allpass phase equalizers, can be easily designed by this approach. This method can be easily extended to design 2-D complex FIR filters. If an appropriate iterative process is used, equiripple filters in the complex Chebyshev sense can be obtained. Several numerical design examples demonstrate the usefulness of the approach.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
