Overlap Add Method / Overlap Save Method

EXPERIMENT 4: Filtering of long Data Sequence

Day four of DSPP practicals. Take the name of the devil and the devil appears. We talked about challenges in the previous practical session and here was one in the form of this experiment.
This particular experiment took some research and studying some theory. It also took the collective efforts of our entire batch.
The aim of this experiment was to perform filtering of Long Data Sequence using Overlap Add Method and Overlap Save Method.
We implemented the filtering of Long Input Sequence using Overlap Add / Overlap Save Algorithm.
The Input Specifications were given as length of long data sequence and signal values and length of impulse response M and Signal values.
We concluded that Overlap Add Method(OAM) and Overlap Save Method(OSM) are efficient methods to calculate the convolution between long length signal and finite impulse signal.
It was one of the longest practical sessions in this semester but we finally got our rewards. Wiping the proverbial sweat from our foreheads,  we exited the lab. 

Program code: OAM
                         OSM

  1. It is used for real time processing in FIR filter

  2. OSM and OAM are used for long signals.

  3. Also,In this method the signal is equally divided in short length signals and then convolution of these short length signals are obtained.

  4. The overlapped portion is discarded in OSM whereas it is added in OAM to get the required output sequence.
