Exercise 9.1
Design a lowpass FIR filter composed of a cascade
of a factor-of-2 decimator, kernel filter and factor-of-2 interpolator.
The specifications for the overall filter are the following:
- Sampling frequency: F0 = 10000 Hz
- Passband edge frequency Fp = 800 Hz
- Stopband edge frequency Fs = 1000 Hz
- Minimal attenuation in the stopband as = 60 dB
- Peak passband ripple δp = 0.01.
- Decimation and interpolation filters are identical halfband
filters.
Compute and plot:
- Magnitude responses of decimation and interpolation filters
- Magnitude response of the kernel filter
- Magnitude response of the overall multirate filter
- Aliasing characteristic of the overall filter.

Exercise 9.2
Compose the multirate highpass filter consisting of a cascade
of a factor-of-2 decimator, kernel filter and factor-of-2 interpolator.
The specifications for the overall filter are the following:
- Sampling frequency: F0 = 10000 Hz
- Passband edge frequency Fp = 4200 Hz
- Stopband edge frequency Fs = 4000 Hz
- Minimal attenuation in the stopband as = 60 dB
- Peak passband ripple δp = 0.01.
- Decimation and interpolation filters are identical halfband
filters.
Compute and plot:
- Magnitude responses of decimation and interpolation filters
- Magnitude response of the kernel filter
- Magnitude response of the overall multirate filter
- Aliasing characteristic of the overall filter.
