Maximally decimated perfect-reconstruction FIR filter banks with pairwise mirror-image analysis (and synthesis) frequency responses
Structures are presented for the perfect-reconstruction quadrature mirror filter bank that are based on lossless building blocks. These structures ensure that the frequency responses of the analysis (and synthesis) filters have pairwise symmetry with respect to pi /2 and require fewer parameters than recently reported structures (also based on lossless building blocks). The design time for the proposed structures is correspondingly much less than for the earlier methods, which did not incorporate such symmetry. >
