Filter design by convex iteration
From Wikimization
where
denotes impulse response.
For a low pass filter, frequency domain specifications are:
To minimize peak magnitude of , the problem becomes
But this problem statement is nonconvex.
So instead, a new vector
is defined by concatenation of time-shifted versions of .
Then
is a positive semidefinite rank 1 matrix.
Summing along each of subdiagonals gives entries of the autocorrelation function
of
.
In particular, the main diagonal of holds squared entries of
.
Minimizing is therefore equivalent to minimizing
.
Define ...
By spectral factorization, ,
an equivalent problem is:
Excepting the rank constraint, this problem is convex.
