FIRInterpolatorFract32

Overview

Interpolator combining an upsampler and an FIR filter

Discussion

The FIR interpolator module implements an upsampler (zero stuffer) followed by an FIR filter. 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/L, where N is the filter length and L is the interpolation factor.

The output block size equals the input block size multiplied by L. The output sample rate equals the input sample rate multiplied by L.

CODE

 M=fir_interpolator_fract32_module(NAME, L, N)
 Implements an interpolator module which combines an upsampler and
 an FIR filter.  An efficient polyphase algorithm is used to 
 reduce the required computation.  The module has a multichannel
 input pin and a multichannel output pin.  Arguments:
    NAME - name of the module.
    L - interpolator factor.
    N - length of the filter (number of taps).
 Note that due to the way the polyphase filter is implemented, N
 must be a multiple of L.  This is checked by the instantiation
 function.
