Abstract
This paper presents an efficient method to improve the comb aliasing rejection in a comb decimation filter without increasing its passband droop. This problem is important since aliasing and comb passband droop may deteriorate the decimated signal. We propose here to apply sharpening of the modified comb in the second stage of a two-stage comb structure. The modified comb is obtained by decreasing the middle coefficient of the impulse response of the cascade of two combs by 1/2. The sharpening polynomial with the first order tangencies is used here. As a result, the comb folding bands, where the aliasing occur, become wider and with an increased attenuation in comparison with the original comb filter. However, this improvement in the folding bands did not result in an increased passband droop. The compensator from literature is used to further decrease passband droop. The method is illustrated with examples and compared with the original comb and the methods proposed in literature for increasing aliasing rejection.This publication has 8 references indexed in Scilit:
