Abstract: VDF can be an important block of channelizer for software defined radio. It extracts a desired channel from wideband input. Complexity of a variable digital filter is a concern. A variable digital filter with discrete control over bandwidth is proposed in this paper. The band pass filter response is obtained by combining coefficient decimation II and modified coefficient decimation II. Since both these methods use same set of coefficients except a sign change. Therefore this combination of these two techniques result in less complex systems. VDFs with less complexity can be used in multi standard radios. Index terms:
