Abstract
This chapter covers two major coupled topics: matched filter and Nyquist pulse. The former maximizes SNR at the sampling time, and the latter is intersymbol interference (ISI) free end-to-end pulse. Both considerations will guide how to design, transmit, and receive filters (shaping pulses). We cover two practical filter design cases: analog and digital hybrid and purely digital ones.

Notes
- 1.
In practice, D/A is not a unit impulse but a rectangular pulse. This can be compensated readily; thus here we consider it a unit impulse.
- 2.
We assume gX(t) to be real. When it is complex the matched filter is in general\( {g}_X^{\ast}\left(-t\right) \). In other words, time reversal and conjugation of gX(t) will be a matched filter. Unless otherwise stated, we consider only a real impulse response. When h(t) is real, \( h\left(-t\right)={h}^{\ast}\left(-t\right) \).
- 3.
This is generally true whether h(t)is real or complex. Thus matched filter is also called conjugation filter.
- 4.
T is used for temperature as well as for symbol time but no confusion with the context.
