Recently, digital filters and digital filter banks have played an important role on many digital signal processing theories and applications. In this thesis, we apply weighted least squares(WLS) algorithm and Karmarkar's algorithm as optimization tools to design 1-D Nonuniform-Division Maximally Decimated Filter Banks(NDMDFB) and 2-D FIR filters with continuous coefficients. Due to the circuit complexity and high cost of multibit multipliers while implementing an FIR filter of the conventional structure, we propose a new FIR filter structure whose main part consists of a transversal filter with tap coefficients restricted to -1,0,+1 and cascaded with a simple recursive section with some specific resetting function. Therefore, it's unnecessary for transversal filter to use multipliers, the configuration is suitable for hardware implementation. Based on the new structure, we design NDMDFB and 2-D FIR filter with coefficients -1,0,and +1. Design examples show the effectiveness of the proposed design technique in the thesis.
