Syntax

grpdelay(b)

grpdelay(b, a)

grpdelay(b, a, n)

grpdelay(b, a, n, 'whole')

grpdelay(b, a, n, f)

grpdelay(b, a, n, 'whole', f)

grpdelay(b, a, w)

grpdelay(b, a, w, f)

gd = grpdelay(b, a)

gd = grpdelay(b, a, n)

gd = grpdelay(b, a, n, 'whole')

gd = grpdelay(b, a, n, f)

gd = grpdelay(b, a, n, 'whole', f)

gd = grpdelay(b, a, w)

gd = grpdelay(b, a, w, f)

[gd, fr] = grpdelay(b)

[gd, fr] = grpdelay(b, a)

[gd, fr] = grpdelay(b, a, n)

[gd, fr] = grpdelay(b, a, n, 'whole')

[gd, fr] = grpdelay(b, a, n, f)

[gd, fr] = grpdelay(b, a, n, 'whole', f)

[gd, fr] = grpdelay(b, a, w)

[gd, fr] = grpdelay(b, a, w, f)

Description

Computes the group delay of a filter. If you do not request an output, this function plots the group delay in the current plot window. grpdelay(b) is equivalent to grpdelay(b, [1], 512). grpdelay(b, a) is equivalent to grpdelay(b, a, 512).

Examples

Inputs

Name	Description
b	Specifies the forward filter coefficients. b is a real vector.
a	Specifies the backward filter coefficients. a is a real vector. The default is [1].
n	Specifies the number of frequencies to use. n is a nonnegative integer. The default is 512.
w	Specifies predefined frequencies. If you do not specify w, LabVIEW evaluates the frequency response at n points equally spaced around the upper half of the unit circle. w is a vector.
f	Specifies the sampling frequency. f is a scalar.
'whole'	Indicates that you want to use the whole unit circle.

Outputs

Name	Description
gd	Returns the group delay of the filter defined by a and b. gd is a real vector.
fr	Returns the corresponding frequencies of the filter. fr is a real vector.

Details

This function is supported in the LabVIEW Run-Time Engine only if you request an output from the function. This function can remain in your scripts when you build a stand-alone application or shared library, but if you do not request an output, the LabVIEW Run-Time Engine does not execute this function. If you request an output, the LabVIEW Run-Time Engine executes this function as normal.

Examples

W = 0:0.01:0.5;
A = [1];
B = [1, 4, 1, 6];
GD = grpdelay(B, A, W)

b = [2, 3, 7, 1];
a = [1, 7, 3, 10];
n = 250;
f = 20;
[GD, FR] = grpdelay(b, a, n, 'whole', f)
