On the theory and design of a class of recombination nonuniform filter banks with low-delay FIR and IIR filters

摘要

This paper studies the theory and design of a class of recombination nonuniform FBs (RNFB) with low-delay (LD) FIR and IIR filters. The conditions for suppressing the spurious response and achieving a good frequency characteristic for these LD FIR/IIR RNFBs are developed. The proposed LD FIR RNFBs have a lower system delay than their linear-phase counterparts, at the expense of slight increase in phase distortion of the analysis filters and arithmetic complexity. By model reducing the LD FIR uniform FBs by the modified model reduction method, an IIR RNFB with a similar characteristic can be readily obtained. A design example is given illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
