## AMPLITUDE RESPONSE CHARACTERISTICS

To analyze or design linear-phase FIR filters, we need to know the characteristics of the amplitude response Aω A ω .

## EVALUATING THE AMPLITUDE RESPONSE

The frequency response H f ω H f ω of an FIR filter can be evaluated at LL equally spaced frequencies between 0 and π using the DFT. Consider a causal FIR filter with an impulse response $h(n)$ of length-NN, with NL N L . Samples of the frequency response of the filter can be written as H2πLk=n=0N1hne(i)2πLnk H 2 L k n 0 N 1 h n 2 L n k Define the LL-point signal gn 0nL1 g n 0 n L 1 as gn={hn  if  0nN10  if  NnL1 g n h n 0 n N 1 0 N n L 1 Then H2πLk=Gk= DFT L gn H 2 L k G k DFT L g n where Gk G k is the LL-point DFT of gn g n .

### Types I and II

Suppose the FIR filter hn h n is either a Type I or a Type II FIR filter. Then we have from above

#### Definition of a lens

##### Lenses

A lens is a custom view of the content in the repository. You can think of it as a fancy kind of list that will let you see content through the eyes of organizations and people you trust.

##### What is in a lens?

Lens makers point to materials (modules and collections), creating a guide that includes their own comments and descriptive tags about the content.

##### Who can create a lens?

Any individual member, a community, or a respected organization.

##### What are tags?

Tags are descriptors added by lens makers to help label content, attaching a vocabulary that is meaningful in the context of the lens.
