FIR, IIR filtering, polyphase implementation
In the past, we had discussed BER for BPSK in flat fading Rayleigh channel. In this post, lets discuss a frequency selective channel with the use of Zero Forcing (ZF) equalization to compensate for the inter symbol interference (ISI). For simplifying the discussion, we will assume that there is no pulse shaping at the transmitter….
We have discussed about probable transmit pulse shaping filter and have observed that raised cosine filtering filtering allows a simpler implementation, albeit at the cost of increased bandwidth. Let us know understand the eye diagram, which is a useful graphical tool to quantify the degradation of the signal due to filtering. Eye diagram An eye…
In the previous post on transmit filtering using Nyquist pulse, we had briefly learned that the information symbol with a symbol period can be transmitted without inter symbol interference (ISI) by using Nyquist pulse, . The resultant waveform is ideally bandlimited to frequencies from Hz to Hz. However, in typical transmission schemes, we do not…
In the previous post on I-Q modulator and de-modulator, we had briefly mentioned that the a baseband PAM transmission can be modelled as , where is the symbol period, is the symbol to transmit, is the transmit filter, is the symbol index and is the output waveform. In this post, the objective is to understand…
Thanks to the nice article from Xilinx TechXclusives [XLNX-TECH], let us try to understand the probable digital implementation of resistor-capacitor based low pass filter. Consider a simple RC filter shown in the figure below. Assuming that there is no load across the capacitor, the capacitor charges and discharges through the resistor path. Figure: RC low…
Equivalence of Moving Average and CIC filter Let me briefly share my understanding on the cascaded integrator comb (CIC) filter, thanks to the nice article. For understanding the cascaded integrator comb (CIC) filter, firstly let us understand the moving average filter, which is accumulation latest samples of an input sequence .
In typical digital signal processing applications, there arises need to increase the sampling frequency of a signal sequence, where the higher sampling frequency is an integer multiple of the original sampling frequency i.e for a signal sequence with a sampling frequency , change the sampling frequency to , where is an integer.
In problem 9.14 of DSP-Proakis, the objective is to analyze the effect of zero-order interpolation and first-order interpolation to double the number of samples in the sinusoidal while keeping the sampling frequency unchanged. My take: The first part of the problem (a) is to generate the sequence having half the frequency of . For zero-order…
