A simple formula for the coefficients of such a polynomial and for their derivatives with respect to the frequency interval is presented and is applied as well to the computation of Butterworth filter parameters.
Abstract
Harmonic comb filters are characterized in the frequency domain by notches arranged at equal intervals, and centered about DC. For a finite impulse response harmonic comb filter, the characteristic polynomial has its roots on the unit circle at equal angular intervals, symmetrically about 1+j0. A simple formula for the coefficients of such a polynomial and for their derivatives with respect to the frequency interval is presented. This result is applied as well to the computation of Butterworth filter parameters. >

Method and apparatus for estimating physiological parameters using model-based adaptive filtering

TL;DR: In this paper, a method and apparatus for reducing the effects of noise on a system for measuring physiological parameters, such as, for example, a pulse oximeter, is presented. But it does not take into account the physical limitations on various physiological parameters being monitored when weighting and averaging a series of measurements.

Adaptive comb filtering for harmonic signal enhancement

TL;DR: Results of simulations indicate that the variances of the estimates are of the same order of magnitude as the CRB for sufficiently large data sets, and illustrate the performance in enhancing noisy artificial periodic signals.

Explicit formulas for the synthesis of optimum broad-band impedance-matching networks II

TL;DR: The paper shows that the most practical RLC load can be optimally matched to a resistive generator over a finite frequency band to achieve the Butterworth or Chebyshev transducer power-gain characteristic of arbitrary order.
