Chebyshev Filter Design

Here we designed a digital chebyshev filter using the analog filter and input specifications. Scilab software was used to write the code and also observe the output magnitude spectrum with frequency (Hz) on X axis and attenuation (dB) on Y axis. The conspicuous feature of the magnitude spectrum was that it exhibited ripple in passband and no monotonic in stop band. Moreover for almost similar input parameters the order of chebyshev filter was lesser compared to butterworth filter. That meant the chebyshev filter required less hardware components for its realization

  1. The transition time for Chebyshev filter is less than that of Butterworth filter. So Chebyshev filter is better than Butterworth.

  2. IIR filter design method has the disadvantage as it requires more memory

  3. Ripples give order of the filter.

  4. They are implemented with less order when compared with Butterworth filter

    1. Chebyshev filters come in 2 types Type 1 and Type 2. For the problem of pass band ripples , Chebyshev 2 can be implemented which is monotonic in Pass band.

  7. High order filter gives accurate results but is computationally tedious
