Signal Toolkit - impinvar

Function File: [b_out, a_out] = impinvar (b, a, fs, tol)

Function File: [b_out, a_out] = impinvar (b, a, fs)

Function File: [b_out, a_out] = impinvar (b, a)

Converts analog filter with coefficients b and a to digital, conserving impulse response.

If fs is not specified, or is an empty vector, it defaults to 1Hz.

If tol is not specified, it defaults to 0.0001 (0.1%) This function does the inverse of impinvar so that the following example should restore the original values of a and b.

invimpinvar implements the reverse of this function.

 [b, a] = impinvar (b, a);
 [b, a] = invimpinvar (b, a);
