This paper proposes a synthesis method of 2-channel IIR paraunitary filter banks by successive extraction of 2-port lattice sections. When a power symmetry transfer function is given, a filter bank is realized as cascade of paraunitary 2-port lattice sections. The method can synthesize both oddand even-order filters with Butterworth or elliptic characteristics. The number of multiplications per...

This paper presents a class of Infinite Impulse Response (IIR) filters which have approximately Linear Phase response in their pass bands. The new filters provide better magnitude response and worse phase linearity for a given order and transition bandwidth than previous designs. They can then be used as an alternative to those designs when we want some degree of phase linearity but the magnitu...

Digital filters are commonly used as an essential element of everyday electronics such as radios, cell phones, and stereo receivers. Digital filters may be more expensive than an equivalent analog filter due to their increased complexity, but they may lead to many designs which are impractical or impossible as analog filters. Basically there are two types of digital filters, which are FIR (Fini...

The quadratic constraint equation error (QCEE) method was proposed by Ho and Chan to achieve bias removal for the equation error adaptive IIR filters. However, this approach is limited to slow convergence in estimation when a small step size is used; large step sizes lead to significant misadjustment. This correspondence presents a variable step size (VSS) technique to greatly improve the QCEE ...

Among the various linear infinite impulse response (IIR) structures for adaptive filters, cascade IIR filters have advantages of easy stability monitoring and good sensitivity performance. However, their high cost for computing gradients is a problem. A novel technique of backpropagating the desired signal is proposed and then a cascade structure satisfying the requirements of this technique is...

This correspondence introduces a new class of infinite impulse response (IIR) digital filters that unifies the classical digital Butterworth filter and the well-known maximally flat FIR filter. New closedform expressions are provided, and a straightforward design technique is described. The new IIR digital filters have more zeros than poles (away from the origin), and their (monotonic) square m...

In software radio systems, a digital IIR filter offers good roll-off and transition bandwidth characteristics using a low amount of arithmetic components, thus simplifying hardware implementation. However, IIR filter structures are very sensitive to finite precision compared to FIR filter structures. In order to design a high quality, low component count, digital narrowband bandpass filter onto...

Reinforcement learning (RL) algorithms attempt to assign the credit for rewards to the actions that contributed to the reward. Thus far, credit assignment has been done in one of two ways: uniformly, or using a discounting model that assigns exponentially more credit to recent actions. This paper demonstrates an alternative approach to temporal credit assignment, taking advantage of exact or ap...

This paper introduces an iterative algorithm for designing IIR digital filters that minimize a complex approximation error in an sense. The algorithm combines ideas that have proven successful in the similar problem of FIR filter design. We use iterative prefiltering techniques common in applications such as parameter estimation together with an Iterative Reweighted Least Squares (IRLS) method....

This paper proposes a new method of a pole controlled IIR adaptive digital filter (ADF) with a preceded FIR section, which consists of parallel connected second order IIR filters controlled by each inherent identification error. The FIR part works to identify a flat delay and responses resulting from poles near the origin of z-plane. On the other hand, the IIR part identifies poles near the uni...
