Abstract

A new design method for FIR filters using the Kaiser window is presented in this paper. Near optimal frequency response and impulse response can be obtained for a given • set of specifications. The synthesis procedure uses the summation of frequency translated and scaled Kaiser functions. The method can be used to design linear phase or non-linear phase filters, and symmetric or non-symmetric arbitrary magnitude response filters. This design method is based on the frequency domain using the approximate Fourier transform of the Kaiser window function. The design procedures and examples for linear and arbitrary phase filters are discussed in detail.
