Abstract:We present an improved algorithm for selecting variable precision coefficients for FIR filters that produces a reduced space implementation with no degradation in frequency response. The algorithm is based on the fact that the frequency response of a filter has different sensitivities to different coefficients depending on the response itself (i.e. the coefficient value). The method provided here makes it possible to predict the variable precision of the quantized coefficients that are required to meet the spe… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
