<p/> <p>A method for designing stable circularly symmetric two-dimensional digital filters is presented. Two-dimensional discrete transfer functions of the rotated filters are obtained from stable one-dimensional analog-filter transfer functions by performing rotation and then applying the double bilinear transformation. The resulting filters which may be unstable due to the presence of nonessential singularities of the second kind are stabilized by using planar least-square inverse polynomials. The stabilized rotated filters are then realized by using the concept of generalized immittance converter. The proposed method is simple and straight forward and it yields stable digital filter structures possessing many salient features such as low noise, low sensitivity, regularity, and modularity which are attractive for VLSI implementation.</p>
