The first type is based on cyclotomic polynomials. It can be applied to any types of band-selective filters. The second is a mirror-image quadratic polynomial to make a passband shaping. Both types of the prefilters are used with the interpolation technique, and this improves each primitive characteristic in terms of the sharp transition. In the prefilter-equalizer design approach, these prefilterings bring about the reduction of the number of multipliers required in hardware implementation. The prefiltering efficiency is demonstrated by a few examples.}, pages = {918--927}, title = {Efficient Prefiltering for FIR Digital Filters}, volume = {E70-E}, year = {1987} }
