Interpolated narrowband lowpass FIR filters

The article describes a class of digital filters, called interpolated finite impulse response (IFIR) filters that can implement narrowband lowpass FIR filter designs with a significantly reduced computational workload relative to traditional FIR filters. Topics discussed include: optimum expansion factor choice, number of FIR filter taps estimation, IFIR filter performance modeling, passband ripple considerations, implementation, and filter design.
