EXP 5 - Butterworth Filter Design

After learning DFT and FFT techniques it was finally time  to start designing filters. We started with IIr filter  design. The first filter that we were going to design was a Butterworth Filter.

Butterworth filter  was designed by using SCILAB. The results were verified by running the program and manually solving  using the same set of values. Results for both Low Pass and High Pass Butterworth filter were verified.

    1. MATLAB provides datatip manager which can be used to measure values on the graph!

  3. In Butterworth filter order is high, hence it's physical implementation is difficult.

  4. Butterworth filter has no ripple in basspand as well as in stopband

  7. it is also referred as a maximally flat magnitude filter. The rate of falloff response of the filter is determined by the number of poles taken in the circuit

  8. Butterworth filters can be used to obtain a flat frequency response as it has no ripples in passband as well as stopband

EXP 6 - Chebyshev Filter design

After designing Butterworth filtwr there was another IIR filter that was to be designed and that was Chebyshev Filter. The filter was designed by coding in SCILAB.  Both Low Pass and High Pass Chebyshev filters were designed and the results were verified by manual calculations. Increasing  the sampling frequency increased the  accuracy of the results obtained.

EXP 2 - Discrete Fourier Transform

Discrete Fourier Transform is used to transform signal in time domain to frequemcy domain. In this experiment, we ran a C program to find the DFT of a 4 -ponit and an 8-point sequemce. Also, we plotted their magnitude spectrum. From the magnitude spectrum it was observed that expansion of input signal in time domain gives compressed spectrum in frequency domain.
