What does a 60 Hz notch filter do?
Notch filters can be useful on the command for a fixed-frequency noise source such as that from line frequency (50 or 60 Hz) noise. Notch filters are also used to remove resonances from the system. Both notch and low-pass filters can cure resonance; notch filters do so while creating less phase lag in the control loop.
What is notch filter 50hz?
This new type of digital notch filter can be used for suppression of 50 Hz noise in the ECG. The filter is simple to design and easy to implement on most 8-bit microprocessors. It has a high execution speed, low analogue to digital noise, low recursive noise and good frequency response with no overshoot or ringing.
Is notch filter IIR or FIR?
Digital notch filters can be designed as infinite impulse response (IIR) as well as finite impulse response (FIR) structures. As compared to the latter, IIR filters have the advantage that they require lower orders for efficient approximation of a given set of specifications.
