Homework 8, ECE438, Fall 2011, Prof. Boutin

Question

a)

$ \begin{align} y[m,n] =& -\frac{1}{8}x[m+1,n-1] + \frac{1}{2}x[m,n-1] - \frac{1}{8}x[m-1,n-1] \\ & -\frac{1}{4}x[m+1,n] + x[m,n] -\frac{1}{4}x[m,n-1] \\ & -\frac{1}{8}x[m+1,n+1] + \frac{1}{2}x[m,n+1] -\frac{1}{8}x[m-1,n+1] \end{align} $

b) Yes. The coefficient matrix of h[m,n] can be written as product of two vectors.

$ \begin{pmatrix} -\frac{1}{8} & \frac{1}{2} & -\frac{1}{8} \\ -\frac{1}{4} & 1 & -\frac{1}{4} \\ -\frac{1}{8} & \frac{1}{2} & -\frac{1}{8} \end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix} \frac{1}{2} \\ 1 \\ \frac{1}{2} \end{pmatrix} \cdot \begin{pmatrix} -\frac{1}{4} & 1 & -\frac{1}{4} \end{pmatrix} $

Therefore the filter can be separate into two 1-D filters.

$ h_1[m] = -\frac{1}{4}\delta[m+1] + \delta[m] -\frac{1}{4}\delta[m-1] $

$ h_2[n] = \frac{1}{2}\delta[n+1] + \delta[n] +\frac{1}{2}\delta[n-1] $

c)

$ H_1(\mu) = DTFT\{h_1[m]\} = -\frac{1}{4}e^{-j\mu(-1)} + e^{-j\mu(0)} -\frac{1}{4}e^{-j\mu(1)} $

$ H_2(\nu) = DTFT\{h_2[n]\} = \frac{1}{2}e^{-j\nu(-1)} + e^{-j\nu(0)} +\frac{1}{2}e^{-j\nu(1)} $
