I am experimenting with GNU Radio (using the Companion graphical editor) to do some simple audio processing.
As my first experiment, I am trying to set up a very simple 2nd order IIR filter at 170 Hz with a sample rate of 16000 samples/sec. I used this Mathematica code to find the taps...
For that we will need a laser pen and two square pieces of opaque, non reflecting material. In both these squares a slit will be cut, wide enough to let a beam of the laser pass through without any refraction effects.
First, after the laser has been turned on, one of the squares is placed in...
I have been assigned the task to design an active bandpass filter with a passband of 0.1 to 10 Hz. At these two frequencies, there should be an attenuation of -6dB or more. So far I have selected my circuit layout which can be seen below
I found my transfer function so that I could calculate...
I was wondering if it would be possible to remove diseases such as cancer from the blood with a mechanical device similar to the one used for dialysis. When the blood passes through the device certain cells would bind to the walls that have just the right binding sites so that they get stuck...
Hello!
Consider this filter,and that I have to find the transfer function U2/U1 with the norm Ω= ωRC (also double fractions are not allowed)
Now I can see that that the resistor and capacitor left as well as right are parallel to each other. So simplifying that
## Z_1 = \frac{R}{jωRC +1}...
I am trying to simulate the active converter, I have seen in you tube video the output of the grid 3 phase voltage is given to LCL filter, the output of the LCL filter is then given to the half bridge section. I assume that the output of the LCL filter is a DC instead of the sine wave, as it is...
I have found a fair amount of sources for studying polarized light but I haven't found sources discussing synthesis of polarizers in detail along with mechanistic discussion.
The summary describes the situation. Most coffee ground beans let the hot water go through the filter paper more or less slowly maybe taking a few minutes to brew a serving of coffee through the coffee filter paper. Some other beans, usually of African origin, take much longer to brew. The...
Hey is it possible to run a normal pond filter of a solar panel my pond is placed at the top of my garden and there's lots of sun around the pond i already have solar panel water fountain in there running with solar lighting to.
The pond is to far away from the house to run cables down and I am...
A few days ago, I learned to make an AC to DC converter. One question is troubling my mind. How does a High Pass Filter Capacitor work? Going through some websites I got a sketchy idea.
As the current after passing through the bridge rectifier comes to capacitor, the capacitor starts charging...
What mechanism or mechanisms cause filter paper to block coffee oils? As I understand it, these "oils" are mostly cafestol and kahweol, which are both functionalized polycyclic molecules with a molar mass around 315.
Cloth filters do not prevent these oils from getting into the brewed coffee...
Hi everyone, I've been having trouble on how to answer this question
This is my attempt at it below, but I am not sure what values of t to sub in for evaluating the integral.
Any help would be appreciated! Thanks
Design a linear phase low pass filter whose specification is:1) Maximum tolerance in the passband equal to 0.01% (linear) in the passband;2) Cutoff frequency at ω_c = 0.3π and transition band at 0.05π;3) Minimum reduction of the 0.95 rejection band.
Being mistaken gives me the creeps because, to the extent that truth matters, it's my only tool, shield, and weapon. So I'm always looking over my shoulder, worrying that I might believe something that's not true.
Are any of these NOT true?

Fitness function for window length of filter
On a sinusoidal signal with amplitude 1, and period P, an exponential moving average (EMA) (with alpha = 1/n), and a linear weighted moving average (LWMA) (with window length n) are calculated; when you subtract the EMA from the LWMA, it can be seen...
Hi everyone
I am finishing the last problem for a DSP problem set and just frankly have no idea where to start this one. I'm thinking I could compute the magnitude of each filter and then compare, but again am not sure. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Thanks

Hi,
Context:
I was looking through some circuits material in the topic of filter synthesis for two port networks. For simplicity, these networks have been synthesized for normalized conditions: 1 rad/s cut-off frequency and a termination resistor of 1 ## \Omega ##. An example filter is shown...
Say we have a transform of a line profile that extends out to the Nyquist frequency such that you cannot see the noise level, what could you change in your spectrograph arrangement that would allow you to see the noise level in the Fourier domain?
My thought is that we can apply a filter, P(s)...
I am starting the input filter design for a converter and only have the voltage and power specs. It will be the input filter to other converters on a parallel bus, so I could look at the datasheets for those and get some specs there. I do not have any information from the input converter to this...
Hi,
I have a question about calculating the Jacobian matrices for the Extended Kalman filter.
Question: If we have a system of the form:
\begin{align*} x_{k+1} =f_k (x_k , u_k) + w_k \\
y_k = h_k (x_k , u_k ) +v_k \end{align*}
where the state x_k comprises of the three variables p_1 ...
Hi,
I just have a quick question regarding the linear phase property of filters. It might be easier to provide some context before getting to the question, but feel free to skip to the bottom.
Consider a system input as a discrete sequence obtained by sampling at t = 0, T, . . . , kT from an...
Hi,
I have a question related to filter structures. Question: An FIR filter can also be implemented using a recursive structure. Can you find such an example?
I don't really know how to proceed here.
Method:
FIR filter is a 'finite impulse response', which means that the response doesn't last...

Dear forumers,
I have two high performance AC feedthrough capacitors (47nF, 100A, class Y2, DC-60Hz) which I want to either combine with a general purpose EMC line filter, or build a custom one to filter the mains from of about 100khz to as high as possible (for shielding purposes).

In the early parts of the books, Mars' ambient atmo pressure (and temperature) was increased, including not just CO2, but oxygen as well.
It rose to the point where they only needed masks that let through oxygen but not CO2.
In my amateur view, I would expect that this would not work very...
I just bought a Coronado and, typically, there are no sunspots to look at. If there were, then I could compare what I see in that dim dark red image with what my basic Baader shiny filter delivers. I understand that there's a learning process involved and I imagine all first-time users have had...
