Tapped Delay Line (TDL)

Transposed Tapped Delay Line

The transfer function is defined for LTI filters as the z transform of the filter output signal, divided by the z transform of the filter input signal — Click for https://ccrma.stanford.edu/~jos/filters/Transfer_Function_Analysis.html

The difference equation is a recipe for computing samples of the output signal of a digital filter based on samples of the input signal and the filter coefficients. In an Infinite-Impulse-Response (IIR) digital filter, there are typically both feedforward and feedback coefficients in the difference equation. — Click for https://ccrma.stanford.edu/~jos/filters/Difference_Equation_I.html

A signal is typically a real-valued function of time. A discrete-time signal is typically a real-valued function of discrete time, and is therefore a time-ordered sequence of real numbers. — Click for http://ccrma.stanford.edu/~jos/filters/Definition_Signal.html

A delay line is used to delay a signal in time. Delay lines for digital signals are typically implemented in software using a circular buffer. — Click for https://ccrma.stanford.edu/~jos/pasp/Delay_Lines.html

A tapped delay line is like a water pipe having a series of holes along its side where water is 'tapped out'. — Click for https://ccrma.stanford.edu/~jos/pasp/Tapped_Delay_Line_TDL.html

Tapped Delay Line (TDL)

Transposed Tapped Delay Line

Example Tapped Delay Line

An example of a TDL with two internal taps is shown in Fig.2.19. The total delay line length is samples, and the internal taps are located at delays of and samples, respectively. The output signal is a linear combination of the input signal , the delay-line output , and the two tap signals and .

The difference equation of the TDL in Fig.2.19 is, by inspection,

$\displaystyle y(n) = b_0 x(n) + b_{M_1} x(n-M_1) + b_{M_2} x(n-M_2) + b_{M_3} x(n-M_3)$

corresponding to the transfer function

$\displaystyle H(z) = b_0 + b_{M_1} z^{-M_1} + b_{M_2} z^{-M_2} + b_{M_3} z^{-M_3}$
