SUMMARY
The discussion centers on the concept of a digital bandwidth finder, which is often confused with digital filters. A digital filter, in microwave technology, refers to a physical structure known as a distributed element filter, used to select specific wavelengths. The conversation highlights the differences between analog and digital filtering, emphasizing that digital filters process stored signals using algorithms like Pulse Width Modulation (PWM). The participants also reference resources such as Wikipedia for further clarification on distributed element filters.
