Optimal design of synthesis filters in multidimensional perfectreconstruction FIR filter banks using Grobner bases

摘要

For a given low-pass analysis filter in an n-dimensional (n-D) perfect reconstruction (PR) FIR filter bank, there exists certain degree of freedom in designing a synthesis filter to make the overall filter bank have PR property, and Quillen-Suslin Theorem can be used to precisely determine the degree of freedom. Designing a PR synthesis filter with optimal frequency response amounts to minimizing the deviation between the frequency responses of the synthesis filter and an ideal filter under the PR constraint. In this paper, a method based on Grobner bases computation is developed for optimally designing critically sampled n-D PR FIR filter banks when one analysis filter is known. This design method can be easily combined with various existing design methods including minimax optimization and weighted least squares optimization, and can incorporate additional design goals including linear phase and bandpass characteristic
