Re: Need help filtering 24 million element vector...

[Brian Kaczynski]

Doug,

I already solved it.  I broke the input into four equal pieces, filtered them individually, and stitched the outputs back together.

It wasn't too bad because the input was a square wave so it had long periods with no change.

Thanks!

Hello,

I have an input vector 24.576e6 elements long which I want to filter with an FIR filter with 2047 taps.  When I try to do:

y = filter(b,1,in);

Octave reports "error: out of memory or dimension too large for Octave's index type."

It doesn't seem like this should be too large...  Does anyone have a good idea how to compute this filter?

Thanks!

Tell us more about your setup.
