Question 5, August 2012(Published on May 2017),

Problem 1,2


Solution1:

a)


$ \begin{align} & {{h}_{1}}(m,n)=\sum\limits_{j=-N}^{N}{{a}_{j}\delta (m,n-j)=}{a}_{n}\delta (m) \\ & \delta (m,n)=\left\{ \begin{matrix} 1\ m=n=0 \\ 0\qquad O.W \\ \end{matrix}, \right. \delta (m,n-j)=\left\{ \begin{matrix} 1\qquad n=j \\ 0\qquad O.W \\ \end{matrix} \right. \\ \end{align} $

b)


$ \begin{align} & {{h}_{2}}(m,n)=\sum\limits_{i=-N}^{N}{{b}_{i}\delta (m-i,n)=}{b}_{m}\delta (n) \\ & \delta (m,n)=\left\{ \begin{matrix} 1\ m=n=0 \\ 0\qquad O.W \\ \end{matrix}, \right. \delta (m-i,n)=\left\{ \begin{matrix} 1\ m=i;\ n=0 \\ 0\qquad O.W \\ \end{matrix} \right. \\ \end{align} $

c)


$ \begin{align} & h(m,n)=\sum\limits_{i=-N}^{N}{\sum\limits_{j=-N}^{N}{{{b}_{i}}\ {{a}_{j}}^{{}}\delta (m-i,n-j)}}={{b}_{m}}\ {{a}_{n}} \\ & z(m,n)=\sum\limits_{i=-N}^{N}{{{b}_{i}}\ y(m-i,n)=}\sum\limits_{i=-N}^{N}{{{b}_{i}}\ \left( \sum\limits_{j=-N}^{N}{{{a}_{j}}\ x(m-i,n-j)} \right)=\sum\limits_{i=-N}^{N}{\sum\limits_{j=-N}^{N}{{{b}_{i}}\ {{a}_{j}}\ x(m-i,n-j)}}} \\ & \delta (m-i,n-j)=\left\{ \begin{matrix} 1\ m=i;\ n=j \\ 0\qquad O.W \\ \end{matrix} \right. \\ \end{align} $

d)

Number of multiplies per output point to implement each individual system = 2N+1 So, The number of multiplies per output point to implement each of the two individual systems is 2(2N+1) = 4N+2.

Number of multiplies per output point to implement the complete system with a single convolution is $ \left( 2N+1 \right)\left( 2N+1 \right)\text{ }=4{{N}^{2}}+4N+1 $

e)

Implementing the two systems in sequence requires less computation, but it is more complex and more sensitive to noise. Implementing the two systems in a single complete system requires more computation, but it is simpler, less sensitive to noise, and more stable.


Solution 2:

a)


$ \begin{align} & {{h}_{1}}(m,n)=\sum\limits_{j=-N}^{N}{{a}_{j}\delta (m,n-j)=}\sum\limits_{j=-N}^{N}{{a}_{j}\delta (m)\ \delta(n-j)=}= {a}_{n}\ \delta (m) \\ \end{align} $

b)
$ \begin{align} & {{h}_{2}}(m,n)=\sum\limits_{i=-N}^{N}{{b}_{i}\delta (m-i,j)=}\sum\limits_{i=-N}^{N}{{b}_{i}\delta (m-i)\ \delta(n)=}= {b}_{m}\ \delta (n) \\ \end{align} $

c)


$ \begin{align} & h(m,n)=\sum\limits_{i=-N}^{N}{\sum\limits_{j=-N}^{N}{{{b}_{i}}\ {{a}_{j}}\ \delta (m-i,n-j)}}=\sum\limits_{i=-N}^{N}{\sum\limits_{j=-N}^{N}{{{b}_{i}}\ {{a}_{j}}\ \delta (m-i)\ \delta (n-j)}}={{b}_{m}}\ {{a}_{n}} \\ \end{align} $

d)

Individually: $ 2(2N+1)=4N+2 $
Complete system: $ \left( 2N+1 \right)\left( 2N+1 \right)\text{ }=4{{N}^{2}}+4N+1 $

For the complete system with a single convolution, as in each filter location, we will multiply both $ a_j $ and $ b_i $, so we need $ 2(2N+1)^2 $ multiplies in total. But if the student consider that we pre-process the system and calculate the complete filter parameters in advance, then $ (2N+1)^2 $ multiplies is correct.

e)

Fewer multipliers are required when implementing individually, but the system is more complicated. More complete for the complete system.



Related Problem

Consider a 2D linear space-invariant filter with input $ x(m,n) $, output $ y(m,n) $, and impulse response $ h(m,n) $, so that

$ y(m,n) = h(m,n)* x(m,n). $

The impulse response is given by

$ h(m,n) = \left\{\begin{matrix} \frac{1}{(2N+1)^2}, for \ |m|\leq N \ and\ |n|\leq N \\ 0, \quad\quad\quad\quad\quad otherwise \end{matrix}\right. $

a) If implement this filter with 2D convolution, how many multiplies are needed per output value?

b) Find a separable decomponsition of $ h(m,n) $ so that

$ h(m,n) = g(m)f(n) $

where $ g(m) $ and $ f(n) $ are 1D functions.

c) How can the functions $ g(m) $ and $ f(n) $ be used to compute $ y(m,n) $. What are the advantage and disadvantage of this approach?
