Efficient sharpening of CIC decimation filter

Abstract
We propose an efficient sharpening of a CIC decimation filter for an even decimation factor. The proposed structure consists of two main sections: a section composed of a cascade of the first-order moving average filters, and a sharpening filter section. The proposed decomposition scheme allows a sharpening section to operate at half of the input rate. In addition, the sharpened CIC filter is of length that is half of that of the original CIC filter. With the aid of the polyphase decomposition, the polyphase subfilters of the first section can also be operated at the half of the input rate.
