Filter Design

Prepared By-Shanta Maharjan

Objectives
• To design different types filters using various platforms such as
MATLAB program, Simulink, Filter design app of MATLAB, Filter design
apps
• To perform simple filter circuit in Test board and measure filter action
using oscilloscope
Passive low pass filter
Cutoff frequency
• P=v2
• ½=v2
• V=1/√2=0.707
• Power gain =0.5
• Pout/Pin =0.5=10(-3/10)
• -3/10=log10(p out/Pin)
• -3dB= log10(p out/Pin)
MATLAB program for Low pass filter
laplace for R=R which is expressed in matlab written as tf(R,1) in matlab as R/1, which in result is R
Laplace for L as LS which in matlab written as tf([L 0],1) as (L+0)/1, which in result is LS . VL =i
Laplace transform for C as which in matlab written as tf[1, (C 0)] which in result 1/ CS+0 =1/CS

• L = 5000; R = 1200; C = (10.^-3) ;

• ZR = tf(R, 1);
• ZL = tf([L 0],1);
• ZC = tf(1,[C 0]);
• H = ZC/(ZR+ZL+ZC); bode (H)
• Another method
• Num=[1];
• Den=[1 R/L 1/L*C];
• H=tf(num,den);
• Bode(H) to convert radian to freq-> multiply radian X 0.159155

filter

H = ZR./(ZR+ZL+ZC)

L = 5000; R = 1200; C = (10.^-3) ;

ZR = tf(R, 1);
ZL = tf([L 0],1);
ZC = tf(1,[C 0]);

H = ZC/(ZR+ZL+ZC); bode (H)

• Find the critical frequency and phase shift for LP,HP,BP and BS using
values R1=1K and C1=1uF for HP and LP, similarly for BP and BS use
R2=1K,C2=1nF

 The Filter Designer app gives you access to the following Signal Processing Toolbox™ filter design methods.
1.The Filter Designer app is a user interface for designing and analyzing filters quickly.
2.The app enables you to design digital FIR or IIR filters by setting filter specifications, by importing filters from your
MATLAB® workspace, or by adding, moving or deleting poles and zeros.
3.It also provides tools for analyzing filters, such as magnitude and phase response and pole-zero plots.
