Filters
Filters may be classified as either digital or analog.
Digital filters are implemented using a digital computer or
special purpose digital hardware.
Analog filters may be classified as either passive or active and
are usually implemented with R, L, and C components and
operational amplifiers.
An active filter is one that, along with R, L, and C components,
also contains an energy source, such as that derived from an
operational amplifier.
A passive filter is one that contains only R, L, and C components.
It is not necessary that all three be present. L is often omitted
(on purpose) from passive filter design because of the size and
cost of inductors – and they also carry along an R that must
be included in the design.
Generally speaking, digital filters have become the focus
of attention in the last 40 years. The interest in digital
filters started with the advent of the digital computer,
especially the affordable PC and special purpose signal
processing boards. People who led the way in the work
(the analysis part) were Kaiser, Gold and Radar.
Ideal Practical
Band-Stop Filters (BSF) - These filters pass all frequencies except the
ones within a defined range.

All-Pass Filters (APF) - These filters pass all frequencies, but they
modify the phase of the frequency components.

(1) Fold the signal x(k) to yield x(-k), this is done because the samples with
the earliest-time index (i.e. most distance past) go into filter first.
(2) Shift the folded input signal x(-k) to obtain x(m-k).
(3) Multiply x(m-k) by the impulse response of the filter h(k).
(4) Sum the results of the vector product h(k)x(m-k) to obtain the filter
output y(m).
