DSP Window Functions Explained

1) Window functions are used in finite impulse response (FIR) digital filter design to modify Fourier coefficients and reduce undesirable oscillations in the passband and stopband. 2) The desired frequency response of a digital filter can be represented as a Fourier series. However, directly implementing the Fourier series results in an infinite impulse response (IIR) filter that is unrealizable. 3) By multiplying the Fourier coefficients by a time-limited window function, the infinite impulse response can be converted to a finite impulse response filter with reduced oscillations from the slow convergence of the Fourier series.

But, this results in undesirable oscillations in the passband and stopband of


the digital filter.

This is due to the slow convergence of the Fourier series near the points of
discontinuity.
These undesirable oscillations can be reduced by using a set of time-
limited weighting functions, w(n), referred to as window functions, to
modify the Fourier coefficients.
