What is polyphase decomposition in DSP?

Polyphase Decomposition. The multirate operations of decimation and interpolation that were introduced. in the previous section will now be used to decompose any system function. H(z) into its polyphase representation. Consider a discrete–time LTI system.

What is polyphase implementation?

The Polyphase implementation is a multi-rate filter structure. combined with a DFT designed to extract subbands from an. input signal.

What is a polyphase structure?

A polyphase quadrature filter, or PQF, is a filter bank which splits an input signal into a given number N (mostly a power of 2) of equidistant sub-bands. These sub-bands are subsampled by a factor of N, so they are critically sampled.

How does a polyphase filter work?

A polyphase filterbank uses the DFT (discrete fourier transform) to modulate (move in frequency) a prototype filter and perform summation, effectively returning multiple bands of decimated and filtered time-domain data from the DFT stage. The DFT operation is typically performed using the FFT (fast fourier transform).
