A new method is proposed for designing FIR Nyquist filters with zero-crossing impulse response and low group delay. It is first shown that FIR Nyquist filters that satisfy the zero-crossing time-domain condition have a frequency response property where both the magnitude and phase responses in the passband are dependent on the stopband response. Therefore, the design problem will become a magnitude approximation in the stopband. The proposed procedure is based on the formulation of a linear problem by using the multiple Remez exchange algorithm in the stopband directly. Hence, the filter coefficients can be computed by solving linear equations, and the optimal solution with an equiripple stopband response is easily obtained after applying an iteration procedure. Although the proposed Nyquist filters have an approximate linear phase response, its group delay is lower than the conventional FIR Nyquist filters. The proposed procedure is computationally efficient because it only solves a set of linear equations. Finally, the characteristics of the low-delay FIR Nyquist filters are examined, and the performance is compared with the conventional FIR Nyquist filters.Index Terms-FIR Nyquist filter, low group delay, Remez exchange algorithm.

rithm. Hence, the filter coefficients can be easily obtained This paper presents an efficient method for designing complex IIR digital filters in the complex Chebyshev sense. The proposed method is based on the formulation of a generalized eigenvalue problem by using the Remez multiple exchange algorithm. Hence, the filter coefficients can be easily obtained by solving the eigenvalue problem to find the absolute minimum eigenvalue, and then the complex Chebyshev approximation is attained through a few iterations starting with a given initial guess. The proposed algorithm is computationally efficient. One example is designed and compared with one proposed by Chen and Parks. It is shown that the results obtained by using the method proposed in this paper are better than the conventional methods.
