Filter Design Techniques: Analog and Digital Filters, Frequency Selective and Matched Filters, Adaptive Matched Filter and Template Design

Filter Design Techniques explains how to design analog, digital, and matched filters. It is intended for practicing engineers and scientists who have a background in Fourier, Laplace, and z transforms. Part 1 is concerned with analog Butterworth and Chebyshev filter design. Part 2 explains IIR and FIR digital filter design. Part 3 introduces adaptive design of templates for pattern recognition and matched filters for signal detection. The design technique in Part 3 takes into account both the signal to be detected and the differences and similarities to all the other signals or patterns. This is a unique feature not found in other textbooks.
