ABSTRACT:
A discrete polyphase digital filter is provided having only a single multiplier and a single cumulative adder for use in a mobile telephone. In one implementation, the filter is a discrete N-phase digital filter including an input line providing an input signal and a group of M delay elements connected to the input line for generating M successively delayed versions of the input signal. A coefficient memory unit is provided for storing M filter coefficients. A multiplier is connected to outputs of the delay elements and to the coefficient memory for multiplying the output of each successive delay element with a corresponding coefficient. A cumulative adder is also provided for summing M successive outputs from the multiplier to provide a single, filtered output signal for each group of M input signals. The multiplier and adder are operated at a rate of M/N times a frequency of the input signal to thereby provide one output signal for every N input signals. By implementing the filter with a single multiplier and a single cumulative adder, a separate multiplier and adder need not provided along with each delay element of each row of the filter. Hence, a considerable savings in circuit area is achieved while also gaining the power savings of a polyphase filter. A specific implementation wherein N is 3 and M is 14 is described.
