EXPERIMENT: 6
BASIC FUNCTIONS USING MATLAB

AIM: Design a 20​th order LPF with passband frequency=200Hz, stopband

frequency=400Hz, and sampling frequency=1000Hz, using a rectangular window
technique. Plot its magnitude and phase response.

THEORY:
A low-pass filter (LPF) is a ​filter​ that passes ​signals​ with a ​frequency​ lower than a
selected ​cut-off​ and ​attenuates​ signals with frequencies higher than the cut-off
frequency.

In ​signal processing​, a sinc filter is an idealized ​filter​ that removes all frequency components
above a given ​cut-off frequency​, without affecting lower frequencies, and has ​linear
phase​ response. The filter's ​impulse response​ is a ​sinc function​ in the time domain, and
its ​frequency response​ is a ​rectangular function​.

It is an "ideal" ​low-pass filter​ in the frequency sense, perfectly passing low frequencies,
perfectly cutting high frequencies; and thus may be considered to be a brick-wall filter.

OUTPUT:

CONCLUSION:
In the experiment we implemented the low pass filter with a given pass band and
stop band frequency, using a rectangular window technique. We plotted its
magnitude and phase response and verified the same using the inbuilt function.
