Filter Design Process Establish Specifications - possibly T D (s) or H D (z) - magnitude and phase characteristics or restrictions - time domain requirements Approximation - obtain acceptable transfer functions T A (s) or H A (z) - possibly acceptable realizable time-domain responses Synthesis - build circuit or implement algorithm that has response close to T A (s) or H A (z) - actually realize T (s) or H (z) Filter
Filter Design/Synthesis onsiderations There are many different filter architectures that can realize a given transfer function onsiderable effort has been focused over the years on inventing these architectures and on determining which is best suited for a given application
