Bandpass FIR filter labview

I am trying to make a bandpass FIR filter in Labview. I have created two sine waves (one with freq = 1Hz, amplitude = 1 and the second with freq=50, amplitude = 0.1) that I added together. Input signal

And now I want to create a bandpass filter to filter out the 50Hz signal (I know that its possible use just low pass filter, but I need to use bandpass filter). I set the low cutoff freq to 0.01 and high cutoff freq to 3, but the result is witout any change.

enter image description hereOn top of that when I change the parameters I get no change.

When I use the butterworth filter I get the result that I am looking for. enter image description here

This is my code:

What am I missing?

You say you need to use a Bandpass filter, but in your VI you are using a Bandstop filter. Not sure which of the two is the error. Just as a recap:

  • Lowpass filter passes anything below the set freq.
  • Highpass filter passes anything above the set freq.
  • Bandpass filter passes anything between the set freq.
  • Bandstop filter passes everything except the part between the set freq.

The Butterworth part has nothing to do with high, low or bandpass but with how fast the fall-off is after the set frequency.

See the image for a working vi and results. VI Snippet Graph

Hope this helps.

Most probably you just need to play with the settings to find the ones that suite you the most.

See the example bellow: enter image description here

And its snippet (drag and drop the image into a blank VI): enter image description here
