ABSTRACT:
Systems and methods for determining coefficients of an Finite Impulse Response (FIR) filter are disclosed. The FIR filter coefficients are computed by determining a sine of an input value and an inverse of the input value. The sine of the input signal and the inverse of the input signal are multiplied together to form a sinc value of the input value. The sinc value is employed to determine the coefficient. The system and method can be repeated to compute any number of FIR filter coefficients in real-time. The sine of the input signal is computed utilizing a memory lookup table. The memory lookup table includes pairs of uniformly distributed values for the sine and cosine functions in the range of 0 to π. The inverse of the input value is computed using an inverse memory lookup table, a most significant digit and a remainder. The coefficient is then computed from a product of the sine of the input signal and the inverse of the input signal. Thus, the coefficient is computable in real-time without the use of previously computed and stored coefficients.
