A FIR Filter Optimization Toolbox for Matlab 5–8 Dan Scholnik Along with Dr. Jeffrey Coleman, I maintain a Matlab toolbox for optimizing FIR filters (and FIR-like structures, such as antenna arrays). The toolbox consists of a set of classes for defining and manipulating FIR filters and for setting up optimizations. The toolbox provides a natural and consistent interface to internal routines as well as several freely-available third-party optimization engine (Source: http://plato.asu.edu)
