Weighted least mean square design of 2-D FIR digital filters: The general case

This paper salves the weighted least mean square (WLMS) design of two-dimensional (2-D) finite impulse response (FIR) filters viith general half plane symmetric frequency responses and nonnegative weighting functions. The optimal solution is characterized by a pair of coupled integral equations, and the existence and uniqueness of the WLMS solution for 2-D FIR filter design ape established. Two efficient numerical algorithms using a 2-D fast Fourier transform (FFT) are proposed to solve the WLMS solution. One is based on the contraction mapping and fix point theorem characterizing the coupled integral equation; the other uses conjugate gradient techniques, which guarantees finite convergence. The associated computational complexity is analyzed and compared with existing algorithms. Examples are used to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed design algorithms. The selection of weighting functions to improve the minimax performance of the filter is also discussed.
