In this paper, a new filter structure to improve frequency response characteristics in decimation filter using CIC(Cascaded Integrator-Comb) filters and half band filters is proposed. Conventional filters improve only passband characteristics, but we propose a new filter which can improve stop band and pass band characteristics simultaneously. Since proposed filter needs only two multiplication, additional implementation cost is not much. And overall linear phase characteristics are maintained since the proposed filter is also linear phase. Finally, filter coefficients quantization effects ate discussed after Verilog-HDL coding.

In this paper, we propose the design procedure of a digital IF system for the OFDM based WLAN system and examine its performances. Along with the decision procedure of ADC sample rate, NCO frequency and the required decimation ratio, we show the decimation ratio is accomplished through the use of a CIC filter and a MHBF. We also show that the amplitude distortion occurred in the decimation filters can effectively be compensated by a ISOP filter and an additional FIR filter, which leads to the reduction of the overall hardware complexity. Finally, we examine the BER performance of the proposed system and compare it with a theoretical one that excludes filter non-linearities.

The algorithm of multiple channel signal processing requires the flexibility of variable frequency band, efficient allocation of transmission power, and flexible frequency band reallocation to satisfy various service types which requires different transmission rates and frequency band. There are three methods including per-channel approach, multiple tree approach, and block approach performing frequency band reallocation method by channelization and dechannelization in the multiple-channel signal. This paper proposes an improved per-channel approach for converting the frequency band of multiple carrier signals efficiently. The proposed algorithm performs decimation and interpolation using CIC(cascaded integrator comb filter), half-band filter, and FIR filter. In addition, it performs filtering of each sub-channel, and reallocates channel band through FIR low-pass filter in the multiple-channel signal. The computer simulation result shows that the perfect reconstruction of output signal and the flexible frequency band reallocation is performed efficiently by the proposed algorithm.

We present a new method to normalize spectral variations of different speakers based on physiological studies of hearing. The proposed method uses the cochlear frequency map to warp the input speech spectra by interpolation or decimation. Using this normalization method, we can obtain much improved recognition results for speaker independent speech recognition.

This paper presents a new index mapping method for DFT (Discrete Fourier Transform) and its application to multidimensional DFT. Unlike conventional index mapping methods such as DIT (Decimation in Time) or DIF (Decimation in Frequency) algorithms, the proposed method is based on two levels of decomposition and it can be very efficiently used for implementing multidimensional DFT as well as 1-dimensional DFT. The proposed pipelined architecture for multidimensional DFT is very flexible so that it can lead to the best tradeoff between performance and hardware requirements. Also, it can be easily extended to higher dimensional DFTs since the number of CEs (Computational Elements) and DCs (Delay Commutators) increase only linearly with the dimension. Various implementation options based on different radices and different pipelining depths will be presented.

In this paper, we analyze the generation of an image pyramid as a 2-dimensional decimation-interpolation process, and suggest a performance index of FIR filter for decimation and interpolation filter. Until now, most deciamtion and interpolation filters are designed via the approximation of the impulse response of an ideal filter. In this paper, however, we propose a new performance index that minimizes the maximum frequency-weighted mean square error between the desired and the generated interpolated signal, and propose an optimal half-band filter based on the proposed performance index as an example. Some simulation results with real images show that the proposed optimal half-band filter yields a higher PSNR as well as the more preferable image quality, in comparison with other currently used filters with the same computational complexity.

The display of biological signals in raster scan monitors often involves a multirate sampling operation which consists of decimation .and interpolation. All electroencephalouaphic (EEG) samples of 10 to 30 seconds (2, 500 to 7, 500 samples at 250[Hz] sampling frequency) must be displayed in the computer screen to keep the aspect ratio of the paper polygraph output. Since the current afrorclable display technology Plots at most 2, 000 Pixels Per row, sDme signal samples need to be discarde4 This Paper studies methods to perform this operation characterizing them from the signal processing viewpoint and compares the display quality among several decimation techniques. Experimental results show that a nonlinear operation such as the peak detection method could be preferable to the canonical linear filtering to reduce aliasing.

In this paper, it is presented a Real FFT for the FMCW radar distance measurement with high resolution. The high distance resolution needs the measurement of the accurate beat frequency. To improve the distance resolution, zoom fft, decimation, digital low pass filter and zero padding method are used. The simulation results using the Matlab show ${\pm}5mm$ of distance resolution and the measuring range is up to 35meter.

The main function of intercept array sonar is to detect pulses radiated from enemy surface ships, submarines, and torpedoes. When a pulse is detected, it is a high risk situation for the own ship, so it is very important to find the target's location for the ship's maneuverability and survival. The target's location is calculated by finding the starting point of the pulse received form each sensor and calculating the time delay between sensors. In order to find starting point, the envelope of the signal is calculated and differential filtering is performed. However, since intercept array sonar has a high sampling frequency of the signal, the number of samples to be processed is large, so this process has a problem with a large computational amount. In this paper, we propose a pulse starting point calculation method using decimation for reducing computational amount. Simulations were performed while changing the decimation factor, and it was confirmed that computational amount was reduced. The proposed method is expected to be effective in real-time processing system and have advantages in resource utilization.

In this paper, a new filter structure to improve frequency response characteristics in CIC(Cascaded Integrator-Comb) decimation filters is proposed. Conventional filters improve passband characteristics, but they make worse aliasing band characteristics. In this paper, we propose a new filter which is called IFOP(Interpolated Fourth-Order Polynomials). By using this proposed filter, passband droop and aliasing band attenuation are simultaneously improved. Since proposed filter needs only one multiplication, computation is not much. And overall linear phase characteristics are maintained since the proposed filter is also linear phase. Finally, implementation cost of the proposed filter is compared with those of conventional filters.
