Quadrature Signals: Complex, But Not Complicated

| 0

Understanding complex numbers and quadrature signals is essential for understanding DSP at both a theoretical and a practical level. Yet this strange, complex subject (based on the admittedly imaginary construct of the square root of negative one!) is among the … Continued

How to Implement IIR Filters

| 0

Introduction The job of an IIR filter design program is to transform a filter specification into a corresponding set of IIR filter coefficients.  After that, the user is responsible for actually implementing the filter using the coefficients provided. Implementing an … Continued

How to Generate White Gaussian Noise

| 0

by Matt Donadio White Gaussian Noise (WGN) is needed for DSP system testing or DSP system identification. Here are two methods for generating White Gaussian Noise. Both rely on having a good uniform random number generator. We will assume that … Continued
