ABSTRACT:
An improved digital wall filter comprises an infinite impulse response (IIR) second order digital filter. The coefficients w(-1) and w(-2) are pre-initialized from a set of m samples of the input signal. The number of samples m is related to the ratio of a constant .gamma., selected between 0 and 1, and the feedback filter coefficients. To ensure maximum performance of the filter, the filter is periodically re-initialized before filtering a new set of input data. To produce a video line, the filtered data created from the input samples used to initialize the filter are averaged with data that was not used to initialize the filter.
