An Improved Square-Root Nyquist Shaping Filter
نویسندگان
چکیده
A Nyquist filter can have any odd symmetric taper as a transition between its pass band and stop band. The most well known taper is the raised cosine (RC) taper specified in most communication standards. The square root (SRRC) Nyquist filter formed from this prototype exhibits high spectral side lobe levels that fail to meet severe spectral mask requirements. This paper presents a SR Nyquist filter with an alternate taper that, for the same length filter, achieves side lobe levels between one and two orders of magnitude below those obtained from a cosine tapered square root filter. This alternate filter also offers up to an order of magnitude reduction in residual ISI levels.

Generalized raised-cosine filters
Data transmission over bandlimited channels requires pulse shaping to eliminate or control intersymbol interference (ISI). Nyquist filters provide ISI-free transmission. Here we introduce a phase compensation technique to design Nyquist filters. Phase compensation can be applied to the square-root of any zero-phase bandlimited Nyquist filter with normalized excess bandwidth less than or equal t...
متن کاملA Family of Nyquist Filters Based on Generalized Raised-Cosine Spectra
Data transmission over bandlimited channels requires pulse shaping to eliminate or control Inter-Symbol Interference (ISI). A widely used filter for this purpose is the raised cosine filter which satisfies Nyquist’s first criterion. We design a phase compensator so that the square-root raised-cosine filter also satisfies Nyquist’s first criterion. Such a technique is particularly useful to acco...
متن کاملA novel square-root Nyquist filter design with prescribed ISI energy
In this paper, a novel method is introduced to design Nyquist filters with prescribed inter symbol interference (ISI) energy. The computation is based on the iterative weighted least-squares optimization with a quadratic constraint. The weighted stop band and the tail energies of the Nyquist filter are minimized iteratively while the quadratic constraint prescribing the ISI energy is enforced. ...

In this paper, a novel method to design linear phase square-root Nyquist filters is introduced. The design procedure is posed as a quadratic programming problem with linear and quadratic constraints that can be solved using convex optimization packages. The flatness of the filter’s pass-band i.e., the pass-band ripple energy, is formulated as a quadratic function of the impulse response of the ...

Designing matched pulse shaping filters with their cascade satisfying the Nyquist condition for minimum intersymbol interference constitutes an important task for almost all digital data radio transceivers processing an incoming data signal on the sampleby-sample basis. Despite their practical importance, there are only few sets of Nyquist filter definitions and design techniques to devise digi...
