In this paper, a powerful approach is proposed for the design of two-dimensional two-channel perfect-reconstruction finite-duration impulse response filter banks employing diamond-shaped linear-phase filters. When one of the analysis filter pair is properly designed, the condition of perfect reconstruction is formulated in a spatial-domain constraint equation for designing the other. The method is based on minimizing the integrated square error for the frequency response over the pass band and stop band while imposing the spatial-domain constraint. One numerical design example is given to demonstrate the perfect reconstruction for the proposed system.
