Part (c) Filtering Via Convolution

3 Point Average ;

bb=1/3*ones(1,3);

2 Point Average ;
bb=1/2*ones(1,2);

5 Point Average
bb=1/2*ones(1,2);

One of the simplest FIR filters we may consider is a 3term


moving average filter of the form ;

An FIR filter is based on a feed-forward difference equation


as demonstrated by above equation.
Feed-forward means that there is no feedback of past or
future outputs to form the present output, just input related
terms.
From the 3-point average graph, the filter can be called a
smoothing filter. Which is clear showed that the action of
this filter. Take an example at n=1 and n=2.This figure shows
that the process of xx1[n] from n=1 and n=2 with 3 steps
which showed in yy[n] vector.
By comparing to the 3 point average and 2 point average, we
can conclude that the 3 point average filtering show better
result than the two point average filter.

However, by comparing to the 5 point average and 3 point


average, we can conclude that the 5 point average filtering
show better result than the 3 point average filter.
