AI-generated summary

A half-band filter is essentially an FIR filter with nearly half of its coefficients set to zero, reducing the computational load to half that of a standard FIR filter. Key characteristics of half-band filters include: - The passband width $ w_p $ (cutoff frequency) is equal to the stopband width $ \pi - w_s $ (where $ w_s $ is the start frequency of the stopband), and the passband and stopband ripples are also equal. - The frequency response satisfies the equation: $$ H(\mathrm{e}^{\mathrm{j}w}) + H(\mathrm{e}^{\mathrm{j}(\pi-w)}) = 1 $$ - The unit impulse response is defined as: $$ h(n) = \begin{cases} 0 & \text{when } n - \frac{N-1}{2} \text{ is even} \\ \frac{1}{2} & \text{when } n = \frac{N-1}{2} \end{cases} $$ where $ N $ is the filter length and must be an odd number.

The half-band filter is essentially an FIR filter, but nearly half of the coefficients are zero, thus reducing the computational load to half that of a regular FIR filter.

The half-band filter has the following characteristics:

The passband width $w_p$ (passband cutoff frequency) of the half-band filter is equal to the stopband width $\pi - w_s$ (where $w_s$ is the stopband starting frequency), and the passband ripple and stopband ripple are also equal.
The frequency response of the half-band filter satisfies

$H(\mathrm{e}^{\mathrm{j}w})+H(\mathrm{e}^{\mathrm{j}(\pi-w)})=1$
```
 The unit impulse response satisfies
```

h(n)=\begin{cases}0&\text{when } n-\frac{N-1}{2} \text{ is even}\\\frac{1}{2}&\text{when } n=\frac{N-1}{2} \text{ is true}\end{cases}

N is the filter length and must be an odd number.
