Two-dimensional recursive filter design--A spectral factorization approach

Abstract

This paper concerns development of an efficient method for the design of two-dimensional (2-D) recursive digital filters. The specific design problem addressed is that of obtaining half-plane recursive filters which satisfy prescribed frequency response characteristics. A novel design procedure is presented which incorporates a spectral factorization algorithm into a constrained, nonlinear optimization approach. A computational implementation of the design algorithm is described and its design capabilities demonstrated with several examples.
