IIR Filter Design Problem Choose a i , b i to best approximate some desired H d w or, (occasionally), H d w . As before, different design techniques will be developed for different approximation criteria.

Comments on IIR Filter Design Methods The bilinear transform method is used to design "typical" L magnitude optimal filters. The p L optimization procedures are used to design filters for which classical analog prototype solutions don't exist. The program by Deczky (DSP Programs Book, IEEE Press) is widely used. Prony/Linear Prediction techniques are used often to obtain initial guesses, and are almost exclusively used in data modeling, system identification, and most applications involving the fitting of real data (for example, the impulse response of an unknown filter).
