Comparison of Truncation Errors of Optimum Steady-State and Critically Damped Second-Order Filters

Abstract

Second-order, linear, recursive, fixed-weight optimal and critically damped filters are compared on the basis of truncation errors produced by each. The critically damped and optimal filters are derived along with the commonly used parameters which are truncation error and noise ratio. It is shown that when truncation errors are compared on the basis of equal noise ratios for the two filters, the optimal filter yields a significant improvement over the critically damped filter.
