Aim : To generate the matched filter.

Apparatus : MATLAB Software

Theory: The matched filter is the optimal linear filterfor maximizing the signal to
noise ratio (SNR)in the presence of additive stochastic noise.

•Matched filters are commonly used in radar, in which a signal is sent


out, and we measure the reflected signals, looking for something similar
to what was sent out.

•Two-dimensional matched filters are commonly used in image


processing, e.g., toimprove SNR for X-ray pictures.

A general representation for a matchedfilter is illustrated in Figure.

Fig. Matched filter

The filter input x(t) consists of a pulse signal g(t) corrupted byadditive
channel noise w(t), as shown by

X(t)=g(t)+w(t)

• where T is an arbitrary observation interval. The pulse signal g(t)may


represent a binary symbol I or 0 in a digital communicationsystem.

• The w(t) is the sample function of a white noise process of zero mean
and power spectral density No/2.

• The source of uncertainty lies in the noise w(t).

• The function of the receiver is to detect the pulse signal g(t) in an
optimum manner, given the received signal x(t).

• To satisfy this requirement, we have to optimize the design of thefilter


so as to minimize the effects of noise at the filter output in
somestatistical sense, and thereby enhance the detection of the
pulsesignal g(t).

Since the filter is linear, the resulting output y(t) may beexpressed as

• where go(t) and n(t) are produced by the signal and noise components
of the input x(t), respectively.

• A simple way of describing the requirement that the output signal


component go(t) be considerably greater than the output noise
component n(t) is to have the filtermake the instantaneous power in the
output signal go(t), measured at time t = T, as large as possible
compared with the average power of the output noise n(t).

This isequivalent to maximizing the peak pulse signal-to-noise ratio,


defined as

The structure of the receiver used to perform this decision-making


process is shown in Figure. It consists of a matched filter followed by a
sampler, and then finally a decision device.

The filter is matched to a rectangular pulse of amplitude A and duration
Tb,exploiting the bit-timing information available to the receiver.

The resulting matched filter output is sampled at the end of each


signaling interval.

The presence of channel noise w(t) adds randomness to the matched


filter
output.

The sample value y is compared to a preset threshold A in the decision


device.

• If the threshold is exceeded, the receiver makes a decision in favor of


symbol 1; if not, a decision is made in favor of symbol 0.

• There are two possible kinds of error to be considered:

– 1. Symbol 1 is chosen when a 0 was actually transmitted; we refer to


this error as an error of the first kind.

– 2. Symbol 0 is chosen when a 1 was actually transmitted; we


refer to this error as an error o f the second kind.
