The FIR
perfect-reconstruction (PR) conditions leave some
freedom in the choice of
H
0
z
H

and
H
1
z
H

z
. Orthogonal PR filterbanks are defined
by causal real-coefficient
even-length-NN analysis filters
that satisfy the following two equations:
1=

z-1+
H

To verify that these design choices satisfy the FIR-PR
requirements for

H

and
H

, we evaluate

The orthogonal PR design rules imply that
H

is "power symmetric" and that
H

ⅇⅈω
H

ⅇⅈω
H

H

form a "power complementary" pair. To see the power
symmetry, we rewrite the first design rule using
z=ⅇⅈω

and
-1=ⅇ±ⅈπ

, which gives

The last two steps leveraged the fact that the
DTFT of a
real-coefficient filter is conjugate-symmetric. The
power-symmetry property is illustrated in
Figure 1:
Power complementarity follows from the second orthogonal PR
design rule, which implies
|
