1. Filtering x y

2. Ideal lowpass filter 1
Is it physically realizable? Looking at the impulse response:

4. Causal approximation to ideal lowpass
This h(t) may be difficult to implement. Easier alternative?

5. “Butterworth” filter of order 10.
This is a rational H(s), with denominator of order 10.
For more on filter design, see signal processing courses.
Here we will focus on ideal filters.

6. Ideal highpass filter 1
Ideal bandpass filter 1

7. Bandpass as cascade of lowpass and highpass1
Lowpass
(B2)
Highpass
(B1)

8. An equalizer Adjustable gains for each frequency band. Implementation+ x y
Implementation
by parallel
bandpass filters.

9. Both these systems do not affect the magnitude of the
signals (i.e. the input and output Fourier transforms
have the same magnitude).
They do, however, affect the phase.

10. Fourier and Laplace
