The FIR filter works by keeping a series of samples and multiplying each of those samples by a fixed coefficient (which is based on the position in the series). FIR filter) and the Infinite Impulse Response filter (aka. The two simplest are probably the Finite Impulse Response filter (aka. There are a number of different filtering algorithms that are used. leave levels unchanged) for high frequencies, but applies maximum attenuation to low frequencies.Ī low pass filter is the reverse - it will apply no attenuation to low frequencies by applies attenuation to high frequencies.
