A design method for FIR digital filter is presented. Frequency domain constraints and a parameterized expression of the filter family under adaptation, a corresponding training set is created and a global minimization process is executed. The adopted numerical optimization algorithm is based upon the simulated annealing paradigm and its implementation is known as fuzzy adaptive simulated annealing. Design example is shown to verify the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
