high-pass filter

[′hī ‚pas ′fil·tər]
(electronics)
A filter that transmits all frequencies above a given cutoff frequency and substantially attenuates all others.

high-pass filter

A filter that blocks low frequencies and allows higher frequencies to pass through. Such filters are used in devices such as POTS splitters that direct phone and DSL signals to different lines. Contrast with low-pass filter.

The high-pass filter in this example will consider [j.sub.h] = 2, so the high-pass filter is obtained from the levels j = 1,2.
The size of the dictionary D is 64 x 8, and the cutoff frequency of the high-pass filter fs is 300 Hz, with forgetting factor e= 0.9.
Accordingly, an L-shape high-pass filter is incorporated to generate one lower-frequency resonant mode to cover the GSM850/900 bands, while contributes another upper-frequency resonant mode at about 2500 MHz.
The analysis was performed separately for every used high-pass filter frequency (30 values ranging from f = 0.05 to 6 Hz).
Figure 6 compares the frequency response of high-pass BICO filter and regular high-pass filter (s/(s + [[omega].sub.c])) with the same cutoff frequency of [[omega].sub.c] = 10 rad/s.
The result of the low-pass filter is usually known as the approximation and isused as input to the following decomposition level, while the result of the high-pass filter is called the detail.
In wavelet transform, g(n) and h(n) are approximately equal to a high-pass filter and a low-pass filter.
Electromagnetic wave propagation only occurs through the array below [[lambda].sub.p], due to which the structure acts as a nanophotonic high-pass filter. From Equation (5), an array of metallic wires, having a lattice constant of 400 nm and radius of 50 nm, displays a plasma wavelength of [[lambda].sub.p] = 1.44 [micro]m.
