Resonator-based filter-banks for frequency-domain applications

Abstract

The filter-bank structure proposed is based on a digital simulation of a singly terminated ladder filter. This filter bank can also be arrived at from a filter described by G Peceli (1989) and represents an extremely hardware efficient structure, having a complexity of O(N). The main application examined is adaptive line enhancement. The filter-bank-based line enhancer is shown to have the necessary conditions for global convergence and to yield uncorrelated sinusoidal enhanced outputs that are undistorted versions of the corresponding frequency components of the input. A number of additional possible applications for the filter-bank are described. These include the tracking of periodic signals, subband coding, frequency-domain adaptive noise-cancellation, and frequency-domain processing of signals from phased arrays.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
