Encyclopedia > Filter (signal processing)

In electronics and signal processing, a filter is a device or process that modifies a signal.


Usually a filter has a non-uniform transfer function; i.e. its gain or attenuation depends on the signal's frequency.

Digital signal processing - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (1333 words)
DSP and analog signal processing are subfields of signal processing.
A filter may also be described as a difference equation, a collection of zeroes and poles or, if it is an FIR filter, an impulse response or step response.
Filters can also be represented by block diagrams which can then be used to derive a sample processing algorithm to implement the filter using hardware instructions.
Electronic filter - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (1031 words)
A filter in which the signal passes through an inductor, or in which a capacitor provides a path to earth, therefore presents less attenuation to low-frequency signals than high-frequency signals and is a low-pass filter.
Active filters are implemented using a combination of passive and active (amplifying) components.
Electrical signals are converted to a mechanical wave in a piezoelectric crystal; this wave is delayed as it propagates across the crystal, before being converted back to an electrical signal by further electrodes.
