Abstract
Abstract A subsampling filter for subsampling a filter input sequence of oversampled data at a predetermined subsampling ratio into a filter output sequence of eventually subsampling data, has a data holding unit for producing three successive data of the oversampled data as each of output patterns of a first output sequence. An input-stage filter subsamples the first output sequence at a subsampling ratio of one by two into a second output sequence of intermediately subsampled data. An output-stage filter subsamples the second output sequence into the filter output sequence. Each of the intermediately subsampled data has one of five values 0, plus 1, minus 1, plus 2, and minus 2. The output-stage filter includes a memory for memorizing filter coefficients determined by a transfer function of this filter, a scaler for calculating products of the filter coefficients and the intermediately subsampled data, and an adder for calculating an algebraic sum of each product and an intermediate sum which is an accumulated sum fed back from a register device of the output-stage filter for memorizing the algebraic sum as such an accumulated sum.

Claim 1
Independent Claim
152 words
A subsampling filter for performing subsampling operation on oversampled one-bit data, comprising: data holding means for temporarily holding three successive one-bit data of said oversampled one-bit data; control logic means, coupled to said data holding means, for producing a control signal corresponding to a pattern of said three successive one-bit data; memory means for storing a plurality of filter coefficients; scaler means, coupled to said control logic means and said memory means, for multiplying filter coefficients read out from said memory means in correspondence with said control signal and for producing scaler products; and accumulating means, coupled to said scaler means, for accumulating each of said products to produce output data, wherein said control signal is variable and is selected from the group consisting of minus 2, minus 1, 0, plus 1 and plus 2 in accordance with said pattern of said three successive one-bit data held by said data holding means.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
