Multirate Filter

alternative view of sampling, assuming DC value is \(A\)

sampling-c2d-d2d.drawio

  • \(x_c(t)\) and \(x_s(t)\)

    \(\overline{x_c} = A\); \(\overline{x_s}=\frac{A}{T}\): therefore \(X_s(j0) = \frac{1}{T}X_c(j0)\)

  • \(x[n]\) and \(x_d[n]\)

    \(\overline{x} = A\); \(\overline{x_d}=\frac{A}{2}\): therefore \(X_d(e^{j0}) = \frac{1}{2}X(e^{j0})\)

expander

sampling-expander.drawio

  • \(x[n]\) and \(x_e[n]\)

    \(\overline{x} = A\); \(\overline{x_e}=A\): therefore \(X_e(e^{j0}) = X(e^{j0})\)

    Fourier transform of the output of the expander is a frequency-scaled version of the Fourier transform of the input

TODO 📅

The interpolation filter following an up-sampler generally is time varying and cannot be represented by a simple transfer function. The equivalent filter in a zero-order hold is an exception, perhaps unique, that can be represented with a time-invariant transfer function

ZOH interpolator

The interpolation filter following an up-sampler generally is time varying and cannot be represented by a simple transfer function. The equivalent filter in a Zero-Order Hold is an exception, perhaps unique, that can be represented with a time-invariant transfer function


zoh.drawio \[ F_1(z) = X(z^{LM})\frac{1-z^{-LM}}{1-z^{-1}} \]

Split the \(1:LM\) hold process into a \(1 : L\) hold followed by a \(1 : M\) hold \[ Y(\eta)=X(\eta^{L})\frac{1-\eta^{-L}}{1-\eta^{-1}} \] then \[\begin{align} F_2(z) &= Y(z^M)\cdot\frac{1-z^{-M}}{1-z^{-1}} \\ &=X(z^{LM})\frac{1-z^{-LM}}{1-z^{-M}}\cdot \frac{1-z^{-M}}{1-z^{-1}} \\ &= X(z^{LM})\frac{1-z^{-LM}}{1-z^{-1}} \end{align}\]

That is \(F_1(z)=F_2(z)\), i.e. they are equivalent

Decimation by Summing

proportional path

The loop gain of a proportional path is unchanged

phug_loop.drawio

In (a), the loop gain is \(\frac{\phi_o(z)}{\phi_e(z)}\), which is \[ LG_a(z)=\frac{\phi_o(z)}{\phi_e(z)} = \frac{1}{1-z^{-1}} \]

In (b), Accumulate-and-dump (AAD) is \(\frac{1-z^{-L}}{1-z^{-1}}\), then \(\phi_m(\eta)\) can be expressed as \[ \phi_m(\eta) = \frac{1-\eta^{-1}}{1-\eta^{-1/L}}\cdot \frac{1}{L} \] Hence \[\begin{align} \phi_o(\eta) &= \phi_m(\eta) \frac{1}{1-\eta^{-1}} \\ &= \frac{1-\eta^{-1}}{1-\eta^{-1/L}}\cdot \frac{1}{L}\cdot \frac{1}{1-\eta^{-1}} \\ &= \frac{1}{1-\eta^{-1/L}}\cdot \frac{1}{L} \end{align}\]

After zero-order hold process, we obtain \(\phi_f(z)\), which is \[\begin{align} \phi_f(z) &= \phi_o(z^L) \cdot \frac{1-z^{-L}}{1-z^{-1}} \\ &=\frac{1}{1-z^{-1}}\cdot \frac{1}{L}\cdot \frac{1-z^{-L}}{1-z^{-1}} \end{align}\] That is, \[ LG_b(z) = \frac{1}{1-z^{-1}}\cdot \frac{1}{L}\cdot \frac{1-z^{-L}}{1-z^{-1}} \]

while bandwidth is less than sampling rate (data rate), \(\frac{1}{L}\cdot \frac{1-z^{-L}}{1-z^{-1}} \approx 1\), i.e. \(LG_a(z)\approx LG_b(z)\). with

\[ \frac{1}{1-z^{-1}}\cdot \frac{1}{L}\cdot \frac{1-z^{-L}}{1-z^{-1}} \approx \frac{1}{1-z^{-1}} \]

integral path

integral path gain reduced by \(L\)

frug_loop.drawio

In (a), \(\phi_o(z)=\frac{1}{(1-z^{-1})^2}\), i.e. \[ LG_a(z) = \frac{1}{(1-z^{-1})^2} \]

In (b), after Accumulate-and-dump (AAD), \(\phi_(\eta)\) is \[ \phi_m(\eta) = \frac{1-\eta^{-1}}{1-\eta^{-1/L}}\cdot \frac{1}{L} \]

After frequency integrator and phase integrator \[\begin{align} \phi_o(\eta) &= \phi_m(\eta) \cdot \frac{1}{(1-\eta^{-1})^2} \\ &= \frac{1-\eta^{-1}}{1-\eta^{-1/L}}\cdot \frac{1}{L} \cdot \frac{1}{(1-\eta^{-1})^2} \end{align}\] Then \(\phi_f(z)\) is shown as below \[\begin{align} \phi_f(z) &= \phi_o(z^L)\cdot \frac{1-z^{-L}}{1-z^{-1}} \\ &= \frac{1-z^{-L}}{1-z^{-1}}\cdot \frac{1}{L}\cdot \frac{1}{(1-z^{-L})^2}\cdot \frac{1-z^{-L}}{1-z^{-1}} \\ &= \frac{1}{L} \cdot \frac{1}{(1-z^{-1})^2} \end{align}\]

That is, \[ LG_b(z) = \frac{1}{L} \cdot \frac{1}{(1-z^{-1})^2} = \frac{1}{L}\cdot LG_a(z) \]
