fwind1

2-D FIR filter using 1-D window method

Description

The fwind1 function designs 2-D FIR filters using the window method. fwind1 uses a 1-D window specification to design a 2-D FIR filter based on the desired frequency response. fwind1 works with 1-D windows only. Use fwind2 to work with 2-D windows.

You can apply the 2-D FIR filter to images by using the filter2 function.

example

h = fwind1(Hd,win) creates a 2-D FIR filter h based on the desired frequency response Hd. fwind1 uses the 1-D window win to form an approximately circularly symmetric 2-D window using Huang's method.

h = fwind1(Hd,win1,win2) uses two 1-D windows, win1 and win2, to create a separable 2-D window.

h = fwind1(f1,f2,Hd,___) enables you to specify the desired frequency response Hd at arbitrary frequencies f1 and f2 along the x- and y-axes.

Examples

This example shows how to design an approximately circularly symmetric two-dimensional bandpass filter using a 1-D window method.

Create the frequency range vectors f1 and f2 using freqspace. These vectors have length 21.

[f1,f2] = freqspace(21,'meshgrid');

Compute the distance of each position from the center frequency.

r = sqrt(f1.^2 + f2.^2);

Create a matrix Hd that contains the desired bandpass response. In this example, the desired passband is between 0.1 and 0.5 (normalized frequency, where 1.0 corresponds to half the sampling frequency, or π radians).

Hd = ones(21); 
Hd((r<0.1)|(r>0.5)) = 0;

Display the ideal bandpass response.

Design the 1-D window. This example uses a Hamming window of length 21.

win = 0.54 - 0.46*cos(2*pi*(0:20)/20);

Plot the 1-D window.

Using the 1-D window, design the filter that best produces this frequency response

Input Arguments

collapse all

Desired frequency response, specified as a numeric matrix. Hd is sampled at equally spaced points between -1.0 and 1.0 (in normalized frequency, where 1.0 corresponds to half the sampling frequency, or π radians) along the x and y frequency axes. For accurate results, create Hd by using the freqspace function.

Data Types: single | double | int8 | int16 | int32 | int64 | uint8 | uint16 | uint32 | uint64

1-D window, specified as a numeric matrix. You can specify win using windows from Signal Processing Toolbox™ software, such as hamming (Signal Processing Toolbox), hann (Signal Processing Toolbox), bartlett (Signal Processing Toolbox), blackman (Signal Processing Toolbox), kaiser (Signal Processing Toolbox), or chebwin (Signal Processing Toolbox).

Data Types: single | double

1-D window, specified as a numeric matrix.

Data Types: single | double

Desired frequency along the x-axis. The frequency vector should be in the range [-1, 1], where 1.0 corresponds to half the sampling frequency, or π radians.

Data Types: single | double

Desired frequency along the y-axis. The frequency vector should be in the range [-1, 1], where 1.0 corresponds to half the sampling frequency, or π radians.

Data Types: single | double

Output Arguments

collapse all

2-D FIR filter, returned as a numeric matrix. The length of the window controls the size of the resulting filter. If you specify a single window win of length n, then the size of h is n-by-n. If you specify two windows win1 and win2 of length n and m respectively, then the size of h is m-by-n.

If Hd is of class single, then h is of class single. Otherwise, h is of class double.

Algorithms

fwind1 takes a one-dimensional window specification and forms an approximately circularly symmetric two-dimensional window using Huang's method,

w(n1,n2)=w(t)|t=n12+n22,

where w(t) is the one-dimensional window and w(n1,n2) is the resulting two-dimensional window.

Given two windows, fwind1 forms a separable two-dimensional window:

w(n1,n2)=w1(n1)w2(n2).

fwind1 calls fwind2 with Hd and the two-dimensional window. fwind2 computes h using an inverse Fourier transform and multiplication by the two-dimensional window:

hd(n1,n2)=1(2π)2ππππHd(ω1,ω2)ejω1n1ejω2n2dω1dω2

h(n1,n2)=hd(n1,n2)w(n2,n2).
