LPF – Low-pass filter

Block SymbolLicensing group: STANDARD
PIC

Function Description
The LPF block implements a second order filter in the form

Fs = 1 a2s2 + 2ξas + 1,

where

a = 2 2ξ4 2ξ2 + 1 2ξ2 + 1 2πfb

and fb and ξ = xi are the block parameters. The fb parameter defines the filter bandwidth and xi is the relative damping coefficient. The recommended value is xi = 0.71 for the Butterworth filter and xi = 0.87 for the Bessel filter.

If ISSF = on, then the state of the filter is set to the steady value at the block initialization according to the input signal u.

Input

u

Input signal to be filtered

Double (F64)

Output

y

Filtered output signal

Double (F64)

Parameters

fb

Filter bandwidth [Hz]; the frequencies in the range 0,fb pass through the filter, the attenuation at the frequency fb is 3 dB and approximately 40 dB at 10 fb; it must hold fb < 1 10TS for proper function of the filter, where TS is the block execution period  1.0
