y = filter(b, a, x)
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| b | Numerator coefficients of rational transfer function: vector. |
| a | Denominator coefficients of rational transfer function: vector. |
| x | Input data: matrix. |

| y | Filtered data: matrix. |
The function filter(b, a, x) applies a rational transfer function to filter the input data array x.
This transfer function is defined by the coefficients of the numerator (b) and denominator (a).
If the first coefficient of a (a(1)) is not equal to 1, the filter normalizes the coefficients by a(1). It is crucial for a(1) to be nonzero.
When x is a vector, the function returns a vector of the same size as x containing the filtered data.
