FIRDecimatorFract32

Overview

Decimator combining an FIR filter and a downsampler

Discussion

The FIR decimator module implements an FIR filter followed by a downsampler. An efficient polyphase algorithm is used which reduces the processing load. The module operates on multiple channels with all channels sharing the same set of filter coefficients. The filter coefficients are stored in the array coeffs in normal order. Each channel uses a circular buffer of length N+D-1, where D is the decimation factor.

The block size of the input pin must be divisible by the decimation factor D. This condition is checked in the prebuild function. The output block size equals the input block size divided by D. The output sample rate equals the input sample rate divided by D.

CODE

 M=fir_decimator_fract32_module(NAME, D, N)
 Implements a Fract32 decimator module which combines an FIR filter and
 a downsampler.  An efficient polyphase algorithm is used to 
 reduce the required computation.  The module has a multichannel
 input and a multichannel output pin.  Arguments:
    NAME - name of the module.
    D - decimation factor.
    N - length of the filter (number of taps).
