Abstract: In this talk I am proposing two innovative application specific FIR notch filters that are free from most of the undesired features such as non-optimal design, ripple in pass bands, highly involved mathematical computations etc. 1. Maximally flat, linear phase FIR notch filter with controlled null width. First part of the talk deals with design of a maximally flat, linear phase FIR notch filter with controlled null width. Design analyses carried out with first, third and fifth order zero derivative constraints of the amplitude response of the FIR filter at notch frequency is discussed. Detailed analysis in the research work discussed shows that the null width of a maximally flat, linear phase FIR notch filter can be controlled by suitable selection of individual zero odd order derivatives and also by the successive addition of zero odd order derivatives at the notch frequency ωd 2. FIR notch filter with highly narrow rejection bandwidth. Design of FIR notch filters (NF) with highly narrow rejection bandwidth (RBW) is discussed. Reduction in the RBW can be achieved progressively in three stages. In the first stage an FIR notch filter is designed from a second order IIR prototype filter. For a given length L of the NF, the maximum permissible value of ‘r’ (the pole length of IIR prototype filter) is chosen to achieve very narrow RBW of the FIR filter. In the next stage by using an Amplitude Change Function (ACF):H(z)(2 – H(z)), the designed filter is sharpened. Consequently, the RBW of the resulting NF is reduced to almost half of the earlier value. In the third stage, RBW is further reduced by repeated sharpening of the filter by the same ACF.
