Implementation of Butterworth filter in MATLAB
The Butterworth filter is a common analog and digital filter that has a flat amplitude-frequency response curve and minimal phase distortion. In MATLAB, you can use butter
functions to design and apply Butterworth filters.
Design Butterworth filter
In MATLAB, you can use butter
functions to design Butterworth filters. The syntax of the function is as follows:
[b, a] = butter(n, Wn, 'ftype')
Among them, n
is the order of the filter, Wn
is the normalized cutoff frequency, ftype
and is the type of filter.
The order of the filter ( n
) determines the steepness of the filter. Higher orders provide a steeper roll-off, but also introduce more phase distortion. Generally speaking, the higher the order, the better the performance of the filter, but the calculation
