Synthesis of recursive digital filters using the minimum p-error criterion
A. Deczky · IEEE Transactions on Audio and Electroacoustics · 1972
The problem of designing a stable recursive digital filter to have an arbitrarily prescribed frequency response may be considered as an approximation problem. Using the minimump- error criterion, a new problem of minimizing a function ofnvariables results, which is successfully solved using the Fletcher-Powell algorithm. An important theorem guaranteeing the existence of a stable optimum for a large class of synthesis problems is stated, and necessary modifications to the Fletcher-Powell algorithm to assure stability are considered. Finally a number of results of the application of this method are given.
