Recursive digital filters with low roundoff noise

Abstract A novel method is introduced for designing recursive digital filters with very low roundoff noise. The proposed method is based on reducing the magnitudes of the noise transfer functions on the unit circle by ensuring the presence of zeros, while simultaneously synthetizing the prescribed transfer function. The final structure, which exhibits steady‐state roundoff noise with low variance, is simple and economical, and canonic with respect to delay elements, although not always canonical with respect to multipliers. An illustrative example is included. The realization method is also shown to reduce the multiplier coefficient sensitivities.
