@defgroup FIR Finite Impulse Response (FIR) Filters
This set of functions implements Finite Impulse Response (FIR) filters
for Q7, Q15, Q31, and floating-point data types. Fast versions of Q15 and Q31 are also provided.
The functions operate on blocks of input and output data and each call to the function processes
<code>blockSize</code> samples through the filter. <code>pSrc</code> and
<code>pDst</code> points to input and output arrays containing <code>blockSize</code> values.
@par Algorithm
The FIR filter algorithm is based upon a sequence of multiply-accumulate (MAC) operations.
Each filter coefficient <code>b[n]</code> is multiplied by a state variable which equals a previous input sample <code>x[n]</code>.
<pre>
y[n] = b[0] * x[n] + b[1] * x[n-1] + b[2] * x[n-2] + ...+ b[numTaps-1] * x[n-numTaps+1]
</pre>
@par

@par
<code>pCoeffs</code> points to a coefficient array of size <code>numTaps</code>.
Coefficients are stored in time reversed order.
@par
<pre>
{b[numTaps-1], b[numTaps-2], b[N-2], ..., b[1], b[0]}
</pre>
@par
<code>pState</code> points to a state array of size <code>numTaps + blockSize - 1</code>.
Samples in the state buffer are stored in the following order.
@par
<pre>
{x[n-numTaps+1], x[n-numTaps], x[n-numTaps-1], x[n-numTaps-2]....x[n](==pSrc[0]), x[n+1](==pSrc[1]), ..., x[n+blockSize-1](==pSrc[blockSize-1])}
</pre>
@par
Note that the length of the state buffer exceeds the length of the coefficient array by <code>blockSize-1</code>.
The increased state buffer length allows circular addressing, which is traditionally used in the FIR filters,
to be avoided and yields a significant speed improvement.
The state variables are updated after each block of data is processed; the coefficients are untouched.
@par Instance Structure
The coefficients and state variables for a filter are stored together in an instance data structure.
A separate instance structure must be defined for each filter.
Coefficient arrays may be shared among several instances while state variable arrays cannot be shared.
There are separate instance structure declarations for each of the 4 supported data types.
@par Initialization Functions
There is also an associated initialization function for each data type.
The initialization function performs the following operations:
- Sets the values of the internal structure fields.
- Zeros out the values in the state buffer.
To do this manually without calling the init function, assign the follow subfields of the instance structure:
numTaps, pCoeffs, pState. Also set all of the values in pState to zero.
@par
Use of the initialization function is optional.
However, if the initialization function is used, then the instance structure cannot be placed into a const data section.
To place an instance structure into a const data section, the instance structure must be manually initialized.
Set the values in the state buffer to zeros before static initialization.
The code below statically initializes each of the 4 different data type filter instance structures
<pre>
arm_fir_instance_f32 S = {numTaps, pState, pCoeffs};
arm_fir_instance_q31 S = {numTaps, pState, pCoeffs};
arm_fir_instance_q15 S = {numTaps, pState, pCoeffs};
arm_fir_instance_q7 S = {numTaps, pState, pCoeffs};
</pre>
where <code>numTaps</code> is the number of filter coefficients in the filter; <code>pState</code> is the address of the state buffer;
<code>pCoeffs</code> is the address of the coefficient buffer.
@par Initialization of Helium version
For Helium version the array of coefficients must be padded with zero to contain
a full number of lanes.
The array length L must be a multiple of x. L = x * a :
- x is 4 for f32
- x is 4 for q31
- x is 4 for f16 (so managed like the f32 version and not like the q15 one)
- x is 8 for q15
- x is 16 for q7
The additional coefficients
(x * a - numTaps) must be set to 0.
numTaps is still set to its right value in the init function. It means that
the implementation may require to read more coefficients due to the vectorization and
to avoid having to manage too many different cases in the code.
@par Helium state buffer
The state buffer must contain some additional temporary data
used during the computation but which is not the state of the FIR.
The first A samples are temporary data.
The remaining samples are the state of the FIR filter.
@par
So the state buffer has size <code> numTaps + A + blockSize - 1 </code> :
- A is blockSize for f32
- A is 8*ceil(blockSize/8) for f16
- A is 8*ceil(blockSize/4) for q31
- A is 0 for other datatypes (q15 and q7)
@par Fixed-Point Behavior
Care must be taken when using the fixed-point versions of the FIR filter functions.
In particular, the overflow and saturation behavior of the accumulator used in each function must be considered.
Refer to the function specific documentation below for usage guidelines.
