General block diagram
Each signal $x(t)$ can be represented on a computer only by the sequence $〈x_ν〉$ of its samples, where $x_ν$ stands for $x(ν · T_{\rm A})$.
- The time interval $T_{\rm A}$ between two samples is thereby upper bounded by the $\text{sampling theorem}$.
- To capture the influence of a linear filter with frequency response $H(f)$ on the discrete-time signal $〈x_ν〉$, it makes sense to also describe the filter in discrete time.
- On the right you can see the corresponding block diagram.
Thus, for the samples of the output signal applies:
- $$y_\nu = \sum\limits_{\mu = 0}^M {a_\mu } \cdot x_{\nu - \mu } + \sum\limits_{\mu = 1}^M {b_\mu } \cdot y_{\nu - \mu } .$$
The applet "Digital Filters" illustrates the subject matter of this chapter.
The following should be noted here:
- The first sum describes the dependence of the current output $y_ν$ on the current input $x_ν$ and on the $M$ previous input values $x_{ν–1}$, ... , $x_{ν–M}.$
- The second sum characterizes the influence of $y_ν$ by the previous values $y_{ν–1}$, ... , $y_{ν–M}$ at the filter output. Thus, it indicates the recursive part of the filter.
- The integer parameter $M$ is called the »order« of the digital filter.
Non-recursive filter
$\text{Definition:}$ If all feedback coefficients are $b_{\mu} = 0$, we speak of a »non-recursive filter«. Otherwise, the filter is "recursive".
Such a $M$–th order non-recursive filter has the following properties:
- The output value $y_ν$ depends only on the current and the $M$ previous input values:
- $$y_\nu = \sum\limits_{\mu = 0}^M {a_\mu \cdot x_{\mu - \nu } } .$$
- The filter impulse response is obtained from this with $x(t) = δ(t)$:
- $$h(t) = \sum\limits_{\mu = 0}^M {a_\mu \cdot \delta ( {t - \mu \cdot T_{\rm A} } )} .$$
- The corresponding input signal in discrete-time notation is: $x_ν ≡0$ except for $x_0 =1$.
- By applying the shifting theorem, it follows for the filter frequency response:
- $$H(f) = \sum\limits_{\mu = 0}^M {a_\mu \cdot {\rm{e}}^{ - {\rm{j}}\hspace{0.05cm} \cdot \hspace{0.05cm}2{\rm{\pi }}\hspace{0.05cm} \cdot \hspace{0.05cm}f \hspace{0.05cm} \cdot \hspace{0.05cm} \mu \hspace{0.05cm} \cdot \hspace{0.05cm} T_{\rm A} } } .$$
$\text{Example 1:}$ A two-way channel, where
- the signal arrives on the main path unattenuated with respect to the input signal, but delayed by $2\ \rm µ s$, and
- is followed at a distance of $4\ \rm µ s$ – i.e. absolutely at time $t = 6\ \rm µ s$ – by an echo with half amplitude,
can be simulated by a non-recursive filter according to the above diagram, where the following parameter values are to be set:
- $$M = 3,\quad T_{\rm A} = 2\;{\rm{µ s} },\quad a_{\rm 0} = 0,\quad a_{\rm 1} = 1, \quad a_{\rm 2} = 0, \quad a_{\rm 3} = 0.5.$$
Recursive filter
$\text{Definition:}$ If all forward coefficients are $a_\nu \equiv 0$ with the exception of $a_0$, then a »(purely) recursive filter« is present.
In the following, we restrict ourselves to the special case $M = 1$ (block diagram corresponding to the figure). This filter has the following properties:
- The output value $y_ν$ depends (indirectly) on an infinite number of input values:
- $$y_\nu = \sum\limits_{\mu = 0}^\infty {a_0 \cdot {b_1} ^\mu \cdot x_{\nu - \mu } .}$$
- This is shown by the following calculation:
- $$y_\nu = a_0 \cdot x_\nu + b_1 \cdot y_{\nu - 1} = a_0 \cdot x_\nu + a_0 \cdot b_1 \cdot x_{\nu - 1} + {b_1} ^2 \cdot y_{\nu - 2}. $$
$\text{Definition:}$
- The »discrete-time impulse response« $〈\hspace{0.05cm}h_\mu\hspace{0.05cm}〉$ is by definition the output sequence when a single »one« is present at the input at $t =0$.
- For a recursive filter, the discrete-time impulse response extends to infinity already with $M = 1$:
- $$h(t)= \sum\limits_{\mu = 0}^\infty {a_0 \cdot {b_1} ^\mu \cdot \delta ( {t - \mu \cdot T_{\rm A} } )}\hspace{0.3cm} \Rightarrow \hspace{0.3cm}〈\hspace{0.05cm}h_\mu\hspace{0.05cm}〉= 〈\hspace{0.05cm}a_0, \ a_0\cdot {b_1}, \ a_0\cdot {b_1}^2, \ a_0\cdot {b_1}^3, \ \text{...} \hspace{0.05cm}〉.$$
Further, it should be noted:
- For stability reasons, $b_1 < 1$ must hold.
- If $b_1 = 1$, the impulse response $h(t)$ would extend to infinity and if $b_1 > 1$, $h(t)$ would even resonate to infinity.
- In such a first-order recursive filter, each individual Dirac delta line is smaller than the previous Dirac delta line by exactly the factor $b_1$:
- $$h_{\mu} = h(\mu \cdot T_{\rm A}) = {b_1} \cdot h_{\mu -1}.$$
$\text{Example 2:}$ The diagram on the right shows the discrete-time impulse response $〈\hspace{0.05cm}h_\mu\hspace{0.05cm}〉$ of a first-order recursive filter with the parameters $a_0 = 1$ and $b_1 = 0.6$.
- The progression is exponentially decreasing and extends to infinity–in–time.
- The ratio of the weights of two successive Dirac delta lines is $b_1 = 0.6$ in each case.
