  A digital filter is an operation that associates an input time series x[n] into an output one, y[n]. Methods developed in the LTPDA Toolbox deal with linear digital filters, i.e. those which fulfill that a linear combination of inputs results in a linear combination of outputs with the same coefficients (provided that these are not time dependent). In these conditions, the filter can be expressed as

<p>
described in these terms, the filter is completely described by the impulse response h[k], and can then be subdivided into the following classes: 
</p>

<ul>
<li> Causal: if there is no output before input is fed in.

</div>
  </li>
<li> Stable: if finite input results in finite output.

</li>
<li> Shift invariant: if time shift in the input results in a time shift in the output by the same amount.

Digital filters can be described as difference equations. If we consider an input time series x and an output y, three specific cases can then be distinguished:
</p>
<ul>
<li> Autoregressive (AR) process: the difference equation in this case is given by:

AR processes can be also classified as <a href="sigproc_iir.html"> IIR Filters</a>.
    <br>
    <br></li>
<li> Moving Averrage (MA) process:the difference equation in this case is given by: <br>  
<div align="center">

<br>
MA processes can be also classified as <a href="sigproc_fir.html"> FIR Filters</a>.
    <br>
    <br></li>
<li>Autoregressive Moving Average (ARMA) process: the difference equation in this case contains both an AR and a MA process:
