“…Most existing algorithms for optimal designs of 2-D FIR filters, say, those in Algazi et al (1986), Dumitrescu (2006), Gislason et al (1993), Lai (2009), Lai et al (2009), Lang et al (1996), Lu (2002), Lu andHinamoto (2006, 2011), Rusu and Dumitrescu (2012), rearrange the coefficient matrices into vectors and then solve the design problems using algorithms for one-dimensional (1-D) FIR filters. This leads to high computational complexities of the design algorithms and much design time for large size filters.…”
