Filtering is the oldest and most common type of signal processing, usually in the form of frequency selectivity or phase shaping, or both. Some examples of filter applications:

  • Extracting a desired signal from other signals,
  • Separating signals from noise,
  • Anti-aliasing in analog-to-digital converters or smoothing in digital-to-analog converters,
  • Phase equalization, and
  • Limiting amplifier bandwidths for reducing noise, etc.
