The FIR
perfect-reconstruction (PR) conditions leave some
freedom in the choice of
H

z
H

z
and
H
1
z
H

z
. Orthogonal PR filterbanks are defined
by causal real-coefficient
even-length-NN analysis filters
that satisfy the following two equations:
1=

To verify that these design choices satisfy the FIR-PR
requirements for

and

The orthogonal PR design rules imply that

is "power symmetric" and that
H

form a "power complementary" pair. To see the power
symmetry, we rewrite the first design rule using
z=ejω

and
-1=e±jπ

, which gives

The last two steps leveraged the fact that the
DTFT of a
real-coefficient filter is conjugate-symmetric. The
power-symmetry property is illustrated in
Figure 1:
Power complementarity follows from the second orthogonal PR
design rule, which implies
|
