Analysis channelizers with even and odd indexed bin centers

Abstract

Analysis channelizers are provided. In one embodiment, the channelizer includes an M-path filter receiving an input signal; a circular buffer in communication with the M-path filter; and an M-point inverse fast Fourier transform (IFFT) circuit in communication with the circular buffer, such that the channelizer aligns spectra of the input signal with spectral responses an odd length, non-maximally decimated filter bank by alternating sign heterodyne of the input signal. The channelizer applies an equivalency theorem to the non-maximally decimated filter bank formed by an odd length polyphaser filter. Advantageously, the M-path filter does not require on-line signal processing to obtain odd-indexed filter centers. In another embodiment, the channelizer alternates a sign heterodyne of a filter coefficient weight.
