Finite Impulse Response Filter Design: DSP Labs

The document describes the firwd MATLAB function for designing finite impulse response (FIR) filters using the window method. It takes parameters such as the number of filter taps, filter type (lowpass, highpass, etc.), cutoff frequencies, and window type. Examples are given to design lowpass, highpass, bandpass, and band reject FIR filters using different window functions. Exercises are provided to design filters at specified frequencies using various window types and list the coefficients.

Window Method
• The MATLAB function firwd(N,Ftype,WnL,WnH,Wtype)
The program, firwd(N,Ftype,WnL,WnH,Wtype), listed in the
‘‘MATLAB Programs’’ section in Program 7.14, has five input
parameters:
– ‘‘N’’ is the number of specified filter coefficients (the number of filter
taps).
– ‘‘Ftype’’ denotes the filter type, that is, input ‘‘1’’ for the lowpass
filter design, input ‘‘2’’ for the highpass filter design, input ‘‘3’’ for the
bandpass filter design, and input ‘‘4’’ for the band reject filter design.
– ‘‘WnL’’ and ‘‘WnH’’ are the lower and upper cutoff frequency inputs,
respectively.
• Note that WnH = 0 when specifying WnL for the lowpass filter design, while WnL
= 0 when specifying WnH for the highpass filter design.
– ‘‘Wtype’’ specifies the window data sequence to be used in the
design, that is, input ‘‘1’’ for the rectangular window, input ‘‘2’’ for
the triangular window, input ‘‘3’’ for the Hanning window, input ‘‘4’’
for the Hamming window, and input ‘‘5’’ for the Blackman window.
Example-1
a. Design a lowpass FIR filter with 25 taps using the MATLAB program. The
cutoff frequency of the filter is 2,000 Hz, assuming a sampling frequency
of 8,000 Hz. The rectangular window and Hamming window functions
are used for each design.

b. Plot the frequency responses along with those obtained using the
rectangular window and Hamming window for comparison.

c. List FIR filter coefficients for each window design method.


a. With a given sampling rate of 8,000 Hz, the normalized cutoff
frequency can be found as

c = = 0.5 radians

window for comparison, as shown in Program 7.3.
