Filters

The information on this page refers to firmware v2.43e and higher.

The STorM32 provides a rich filter section to filter the gyro, accelerometer, encoder, and motor control data, using notch/band-cut filters.

Concept and Overview

The filters are organized into three identical filter banks, which are processed in series. That is, the data are feed into filter bank #1, the output of this bank is then feed into filter bank #2, and so on.

The parameters of the filter banks are exemplarily described for filter bank #1. They are

• Filter1 Source: Selects the filter source.
• Filter1 Center Frequency: Selects the center or cut-off frequency of the filter.
• Filter1 Bandwidth: Selects the bandwidth for notch or band-cut filters.
• Filter1 Attenuation: Selects the attenuation for notch or band-cut filters.

Filter Sources

Currently, the following data sources are available:

“off”	The filter bank is inactive.
“gyro1 all”	The raw data of gyro1 are filtered.
“gyro1 x”	The raw data of gyro1's x channel are filtered.
“gyro1 y”	The raw data of gyro1's y channel are filtered.
“gyro1 z”	The raw data of gyro1's z channel are filtered.
“imu1 all”
“imu1 x”
“imu1 y”
“imu1 z”
“mot all”	not yet implemented
“mot pitch”	not yet implemented
“mot roll”	not yet implemented
