Transform IIR lowpass filter to IIR bandpass filter

collapse all in page

Syntax

[Num,Den,AllpassNum,AllpassDen] = iirlp2bp(B,A,Wo,Wt)

Description

example

[Num,Den,AllpassNum,AllpassDen] = iirlp2bp(B,A,Wo,Wt) transform IIR lowpass filter to IIR bandpass filter.

The iirlp2bp function returns the numerator and denominator vectors, Num and Den, respectively, of the target filter transformed from the real lowpass prototype by applying a second-order real lowpass to real bandpass frequency mapping. For more details, see IIR Lowpass to IIR Bandpass Transformation.

The function also returns the numerator, AllpassNum, and the denominator, AllpassDen, of the allpass mapping filter. The prototype lowpass filter is specified with the numerator B and denominator A.

Note

Frequencies must be normalized to be between 0 and 1, with 1 corresponding to half the sample rate.

Open Live Script

Design a prototype real IIR lowpass elliptic filter with a gain of about –3 dB at 0.5π rad/sample.

[b,a] = ellip(3,0.1,30,0.409);

Create a real bandpass filter by placing the cutoff frequencies of the prototype filter at 0.25π and 0.75π.

[num,den] = iirlp2bp(b,a,0.5,[0.25 0.75]);

Compare the magnitude responses of the filters using FVTool.

hvft = fvtool(b,a,num,den);
legend(hvft,'Prototype','Target')

IIR Lowpass to IIR Bandpass Transformation

IIR lowpass to IIR bandpass transformation effectively places one feature of the original filter, located at frequency -Wo, at the required target frequency location, Wt1, and the second feature, originally at +Wo, at the new location, Wt2. It is assumed that Wt2 is greater than Wt1. This transformation implements the “DC Mobility,” meaning that the Nyquist feature stays at Nyquist, but the DC feature moves to a location dependent on the selection of Wts.

Relative positions of other features of the original filter do not change in the target filter. This means that it is possible to select two features of an original filter, F1 and F2, with F1 preceding F2. Feature F1 will still precede F2 after the transformation. However, the distance between F1 and F2 will not be the same before and after the transformation.

Choice of the feature subject to the lowpass to bandpass transformation is not restricted only to the cutoff frequency of an original lowpass filter. You can choose to transform any feature of the original filter like stopband edge, DC, deep minimum in the stopband, or others.

Real lowpass to bandpass transformation can also be used to transform other types of filters, for example, real notch filters or resonators can be doubled and positioned at two distinct desired frequencies.
