The perfect-reconstruction QMF bank: New architectures, solutions, and optimization strategies

Abstract

n this paper, a scheme for perfect reconstruction in M channel, maximally decimated QMF banks is first presented, for arbitrary M. The solutions are such that the analysis and synthesis filters are FIR and of the same length. Based on the theory, lattice structures for the two-channel case are derived, which offer an efficient design as well as implementation procedure for two-channel perfect reconstruction systems. Such lattice implementations are robust in the sense that the perfect-reconstruction property is preserved in spite of coefficient quantization.
