Abstract:
New design methodology for 2-D and 3-D (two-dimensional and three dimensional) Comb Filters and 2-D Fan Filters as well as for three-dimensional (3-D) Cone Filters are presented. The methodologies are based on appropriate transformations and do not require the solution of an optimization problem. Numerical examples illustrate the validity and the efficiency of the method. Comb filters are the filter that delay a signal and adds it to itself, causing signal assembly and disassembly interference. 2-D and 3-D comb filters have been introduced recently in PAL and NTSC television decoders. Fan filters (2-D) and cone filters (3-D) are used in several areas of seismic data processing, geophones applications, biomedical imaging, elective filtering of broadband 2-D plane waves and so on. Several methods have been already proposed for the design, stability checking and implementation of fan and cone filters.

Prof. Dr. Nikos E. Mastorakis received his B.Sc. and M.Sc. (Diploma) in Electrical Engineering from the National Technical University of Athens (Greece) and the Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science from the same university. He also received the B.Sc. (Ptychion) in Pure Mathematics from the National University of Athens, Greece. He also studied Medicine in Medical School of Athens of the same university. He have served as special scientist on Computers and Electronics in the Hellenic (Greek) Army General Staff (1993-1994) and taught several courses in the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department of the National Technical University of Athens (1998-1994). He has also served as Visiting Professor at the University of Exeter, School of Engineering (UK, 1998), Visiting Professor in the Technical University of Sofia (Bulgaria, 2003-2004) while he is now Professor in the Technical University of Sofia (Bulgaria, http://elfe.tu-sofia.bg/elfe/staff.htm, http://elfe.tu-sofia.bg/elfe/curriculum4.htm and http://elfe.tu-sofia.bg/elfe/curriculum3.htm and also Professor in the department of Computer Science at the Military Institutions of University Education (MIUE) -Hellenic Naval Academy, Greece.
Prof. Dr. Nikos Mastorakis was the first that solved with several different approaches the former unsolved problem of Multivariable Factorization and published it. He was also the first scholar that completely solved the problem of stability for Multidimensional Systems using Genetic Algorithms. Also, was the first that constructed Electronic Musical Instrument with the spaces of the Byzantine music. He is an active researcher in Applied Mathematics and Computer Science (Systems Theory, Control, Optimization Theory, Algorithms Theory, Signal Processing, Robotics, Computational Intelligence).
