In this paper we describe a generic receiver as a single channel S-band receiver and it is composed of two modules. The first module (down converter) consists of an input band pass filter, LNA, image rejection filter and down-converter with a PLL local oscillator. The second module consists of the IF module derived from the VHF receiver. The IF module consists of a low pass filter, 20MHz band p...

Digital filter plays an important role in digital signal processing applications. Digital filter can also be applied in speech processing applications, such as speech filtering, speech enhancement, noise reduction and automatic speech recognition among others. In this paper Matlab program is used to implement a low-pass FIR filter using adjustable window function based on Hamming window. In som...

This paper presents an optimal design of linear phase digital high pass finite impulse response (FIR) filter using Improved Particle Swarm Optimization (IPSO). In the design process, the filter length, pass band and stop band frequencies, feasible pass band and stop band ripple sizes are specified. FIR filter design is a multi-modal optimization problem. An iterative method is introduced to fin...

An ultra-compact surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) narrow band-pass filter based on a slot cavity is proposed and numerically investigated. Attributed to the coupled resonances in the cavity, the filter demonstrates pass-band selection capability. Also, by varying the positions of output waveguides, the filter shows the spectrally splitting function. Moreover, the combination of the adjustments...

ABSTRACT:In this paper, an improved design of a tunable optical filter device made up of alternating layers of MgF2 and Ta2O5is proposed. Different configurations of this narrow band pass (NBP) optical filter are used for whole visible spectral range (400nm-700nm).We report on the calculated values of the design parameters, such as pass band wavelength, 3-dB bandwidth and quality factor for dif...

Since two-dimensional Gabor filter can be separated into onedimensional Gaussian low pass filter and one-dimensional Gaussian band pass filter to the perpendicular, a new set of separable Gabor filters are implemented for fingerprint enhancement. This separable Gabor filtering consumes approximately 2.6 time faster than the conventional Gabor filtering with comparable enhancement results. This ...

Visuospatial attention and gaze control depend on the interaction of foveal and peripheral processing. The foveal and peripheral regions of the visual field are differentially sensitive to parts of the spatial-frequency spectrum. In two experiments, we investigated how the selective attenuation of spatial frequencies in the central or the peripheral visual field affects eye-movement behavior du...

In the last few years, several microwave filter design with band-pass response have been proposed for ultra-wideband (UWB) application. Among various microwave filter design, microstrip filter are mostly used by researcher due to their low profile, light weight, easy to fabricate and low cost. Conventional microstrip filter can be in any shape whether circular, rectangular or elliptical but som...

A two-input two-output (TITO) current-mode universal biquad using only four dual-output operational transconductance amplifier (DO-OTAs) and two grounded capacitors is described. By appropriately connecting the input and output terminals, the proposed circuit can provide lowpass, bandpass, highpass, bandstop and allpass current responses. The filter also offers an independent electronic control...
