Abstract

Bandpass filters (BPFs) are very important to extract target signals and eliminate noise from the received signals. A BPF of which frequency characteristics is a sum of Gaussian functions is called the Gaussian mixture BPF (GMBPF). In this research, we propose to implement the GMBPF approximately by the sum of several frequency components of the sliding Fourier transform (SFT) or the attenuated SFT (ASFT). Because a component of the SFT/ASFT can be approximately realized using the finite impulse response (FIR) recursive filters, its calculation complexity does not depend on the length of the impulse response. The property makes GMBPF ideal for narrow bandpass filtering applications. We conducted experiments to demonstrate the advantages of the proposed GMBPF over FIR filters designed by a MATLAB function with regard to the computational complexity.
