The energetic growth in portable multimedia and mobile communication system has increased the requirement of high-speed signal processing system with compact area and power consumption. Finite impulse response(FIR) filters are broadly used in image, signal, speech and video signal processing, medical electronics, noise filtering, mobile communication and many other fields. The performance of the whole signal processing system with FIR filter depends on the basic building block of multiplier and adders. Hence, the hybrid FIR filter is proposed to improve the speed of the signal processing system using hybrid adder and hybrid multiplier. In this technique, the basic hybrid adder is designed with the help of 2-bit adders, BEC and 4:1 Multiplexer. Also, the hybrid multiplier is designed based on partial products of two consecutive multiplicand bits which are added at same time using Han-Carlson, Weinberger and Ling adder. The proposed FIR filter is functionally verified and synthesised using Xilinx ISE simulator and is implemented in Spartan 6 FPGA boards. The result shows that the delay of FIR filter using the proposed multiplier is improved by 26.51%, 15.59%, 15.83% and 2.79% as compared with CLA, conventional CSA, CSA-BK-BEC and the proposed adder with array multiplier, respectively.
