Abstract

The quantisation process of filter coefficients required due to the finite length of the register provided to store the coefficients is an important step in the realization of a given filter. This process must be optimally carried out to minimise the error in the filter response caused by the quantisation of coefficients. Genetic algorithm is a heuristic optimisation procedure which is able to optimise both discrete and continuos functions efficiently. This paper explains how to use a genetic algorithm to round the coefficients of an FIR (finite-impulse-response) filter represented using fixed-point numbers and presents the simulation results.
