Current techniques used in pipelining recursive filters require significant hardware complexity. These techniques attempt to preserve the exact frequency response of the original circuit while seeking to construct a pipelined architecture. We present a technique that relaxes the need to preserve the exact frequency response and instead considers a least-squares formulation in conjunction with the pipelined architecture. The benefit of this design is that it reduces the complexity of the pipelined circuit immensely, while enabling a simple pipelined architecture based on a polyphase decomposition of the original filter.
