This paper proposes a new design method for obtaining the impulse responses which satisfy the prescribed conditions designing for maximally flat FIR lowpass filters and highpass filters. The bandpass filters and band-reject filters have been directly derived from the addition and subtraction of impulse responses of a lowpass filter and a highpass filter. The two-dimensional maximally flat FIR lowpass filter, highpass filters, bandpass filters and band-reject filters with zero-phase have been designed by transforming the impulses of the one-dimensional filters designed in this research, which do not destroy lines and edges at the image signal processing.

In this paper, we propose the MDM algorithm by which one can desing an FIR filter that is maximally flat and requires no multiplication. We use the modified MAXFLAT subroutive of Kaiser to achieve the maximally-flat characteristics. The filter coefficients are encoded in MDM-code and the optimal stepsize is determined the steepest- descent method. Simulation results shows that the FIR filter designed is almost maximally-flat in passband, but has about -30dB ripples in stopband due to MDM quantization error.

In general, the earlier methods for the design of MAXFLAT FIR filters have existent problems due to the approximation algorithms used to approach MAXFLAT(maximally flat) response in the passband and the stopband.. The proposed approach advanced by using of MAXSHCUT(maximally sharp cutoff) condition in this paper clearly overcomes these problems. In this approach, we use a key parameter represented with filter-order and cutoff-frequency parameters for obtaining the lowpass filters with the MAXFLAT and MAXSHCUT characteristics in the frequency domain. Consequently, this design technique leads to new MAXFLAT and MAXSHCUT FIR digital filter, which can achieve sharp-cutoff responses with the stopband attenuation exceeding 100 dB almost everywhere.

This paper presents a semi-lumped balun transformer using conventional PCB process and its design theory and geometry for the maximally flat response and wide bandwidth using magnetically coupled LC resonators. The proposed balun is comprised of two pairs of coupled resonators which share one among three LC resonators. It provides an identical magnitude and phase difference of 180° between two balanced ports with DC isolation and an impedance transformation characteristic. Theoretical design and analysis were performed to optimize the inductance and capacitance values of proposed balun device for obtaining the wide bandwidth and maximally flat response in its pass-band. Three balun transformers with a center frequency of 500 MHz were demonstrated for proving the concept of design proposed. They were fabricated by using lumped chip capacitors and planar inductors embedded into a conventional 4-layered PCB substrate. They exhibited a maximum magnitude difference of 0.8 dB and phase difference within 2.4 degrees.

본 논문에서는, 1차원 및 2차원 웨이브렛 함수를 전역통과필터(APF)와 지연기의 병렬접속에 위한 재귀형(IIR) 디지털 필터로 구성하는 방법을 제안한다. Mallat에 의하여 웨이브렛 변환과 필터뱅크가 밀접한 관계에 있다는 것이 알려졌고, 완전 재구성 필터뱅크로부터 웨이브렛 함수를 도출하는 다양한 방법이 알려져 있다. 그러나, 이러한 방법의 대부분은 비재귀형(FIR) 디지털 필터에 근거를 두는 것으로, 재귀형 디지털 필터에 의한 방법은 거의 제안되어 있지 않다. 재귀형 필터를 이용하는 장점은 비재귀형에 비하여 낮은 차수로 표현되는 점이다. 또 직교 웨이브렛 함수를 끌어내기 위한 직교조건을 용이하게 만족시킬 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 웨이브렛 함수에 요구되는 레귤레리티(Regularity)조건을 만족시키기 위하여, 최대 평탄성(Maximally Flat)을 부가한 새로운 1차원 및 2차원 재귀형 웨이브렛 함수의 도출법을 보인다.

Two kinds of QMF(Quadrature Mirror Filter) pairs are used in JPEG2000 standard, which don't have QMF distortions. However, the QMF pairs have the main disadvantages such that there are gentle roll-off rate, ripples in the passband and unequal band decomposition. In this paper, Maxflat(maximally flat) QMF pairs with a half-band gain are proposed for overcoming these problems. Maxflat QMF pairs are realized due to generalized closed-form formulas, and the filters have maximally flat response in the passband/stopband as well as sharp roll-off rate in the transition band. Comparing proposed filters and JPEG2000's filters in frequency domain, it is found that proposed filters have better performance JPEG2000's filters. Moreover, Maxflat QMF pairs show stopband-attenuation exceeding 200 dB almost everywhere.

Maximally flat (MAXFLAT) FIR filter design provides the advantage of giving a closed-form solution, but there still remains a problem of exactly and efficiently choosing the order of flatness for the accurate design of filters. This paper provides, through the modeling and analysis of a frequency-domain error function in the closed-form solution, how to determine the order of flatness. A proposed method, based on the frequency-domain error function, is accomplished by computing a minimum distance between its peak frequency and specified cutoff frequency. It is also shown that the proposed scheme is computationally efficient and accurate than the empirical formula given by Herrmann.

In this paper, a general and explicit technique is presented for determining the filter coefficients of maximally flat (MAXFLAT) FIR filter with the magnitude response exactly passing through a prescribed cutoff point. This technique is based on a general formula (i.e. impulse response) with an arbitrary cutoff point and permits direct computation of the coefficients of this filter type with a specified cutoff point. The technique provides an explicit method for choosing the order of flatness of the filter with the specified cutoff point. Also, in the paper, it is shown to give a computationally efficient and accurate solution to the design of the filters with the desired cutoff point.

In this paper, a transimpedance optical receiver based on PIN/P-HEMT with cascoded input stage and inductor peaking technique was designed for several giga bits optical communication. Analysis of the receiver shows that cascoded input stage with inductor peaking increase bandwidth without sacrificing low frequence gain. The receiver achieved a low noise characteristic and maximally flat frequence response. It is shown that the 3-dB bandwidth of the designed receiver is 8.3 ㎓ and input equivalent noise current is as low as 16pA/√Hz to 10㎓.

In this paper, the implementation technique of digital crossover network using perfect linear phase IIR filters is presented. This system has various advantages which cannot be obtained from analog crossover network such as linear phase response, flat group delay and sharp cut-off at low-order over audio frequency band. The simulation results show that the group delay response is maximally flat and twice more attenuation in stop-band than the prototype elliptic IIR filter at all desired frequency.
