Phase Equalization: If you would like to have the FIR filter do phase equalization, you can turn on the “Phase Equalization” option, as shown in the figure below. If you are mainly interested in pass band, click the top button, it will open the following three figures: One is from 0 Hz to half of the data rate, the other is from 0 Hz up to half of the converter rate. For your convenience, we provide this tool on two different frequency scales. If you are interested in more details of the design performance, you can click the “FVTool” buttons left to “Filter Results” to launch the Filter Visualization Tool (fvtool) provided by The MathWorks. From these numbers, you will get an idea whether the design meets the requirements quantitatively. Below it, on the right, you will see a “Filter Results” portion, where the actual Apass, Astop, the number of FIR taps and the pass band group delay variance are shown. The x-axis is from 0 to half of the data rate. If you are satisfied with all the parameters, you can go ahead and click “Design Filter” to start the design.Īs soon as the design process completes, you will see a magnitude plot displayed on the top half of the GUI, where the specified Fpass, Fstop, Apass and Astop are highlighted in the plot. There are three categories of input parameters: magnitude specifications, frequency specifications, and AD936x clock settings. In addition, you can also save your favorite parameter settings in this list, such as “foobar (Rx & Tx)” shown in the figure.Īssume that you choose the “LTE10 (Rx & Tx)” profile, after you click it, all the parameters are filled in automatically for you, as shown in the figure below. Occupied RF Bandwidth from between 1.08MHz to 19.8MHz with 180kHz steps complies with the spec, and while these filters can be designed (manually) they are not included as defaults. The LTE Release-8 physical layer specification actually supports 105 different bandwidth options (not just the 6 shown above).
