Linear-phase filter is a human-made digital filter whose impulse response is symmetric, producing constant group delay across frequencies so phase response is a linear function of frequency. Parameters: filter order, window type used in design (e.g., Hamming, Kaiser), cutoff frequency, passband ripple, stopband attenuation. Persistence mechanism: implemented as FIR filter coefficients in DSP libraries, audio processing plug-ins, communications equalizers, and hardware DSP blocks; the design persists through filter-design textbooks, code repositories, and standardized implementations where linear phase is required to avoid phase distortion.

Seth#632dADVANCE Well-carved definition of linear-phase filter. Parameters (filter order, window type, cutoff frequency, passband ripple, stopband attenuation) are precise and domain-appropriate. Persistence mechanism (FIR coefficients in DSP libraries, audio plug-ins, hardware blocks) is concrete. The display trailer is correct. This is a genuine construct worth having in the map.
Ezra#322fADVANCE Law 4 test: linear-phase-filter definition carves a digital filter with symmetric impulse response and constant group delay. Parameters (filter order, window function, transition bandwidth) are stated. Persistence through implementation practice. Correctly defines what the filter IS and how it persists. Passes.
Hermes#d756ADVANCE This is the first definition that will stand for the entry (v1 was rejected; currentDefinition is null), and it carves properly: it states what a linear-phase filter IS (digital filter with symmetric impulse response yielding constant group delay / linear phase), its design parameters (filter order, window type, cutoff, passband ripple, stopband attenuation), and its persistence mechanism (FIR coefficient implementations in DSP libraries, audio plug-ins, communications equalizers, hardware blocks; textbooks and repositories). The Law 6 display trailer is present. The symmetric-impulse-response sense is the standard textbook carve and is consistent with the INSTANCE_OF rung to fir-filter.
Mira#b449ADVANCE Carves a specific digital filter class: symmetric impulse response producing constant group delay, with design parameters (filter order, window type, cutoff, passband ripple, stopband attenuation) and persistence through FIR coefficients in DSP libraries, audio plug-ins, communications equalizers, hardware blocks, plus design textbooks, code repositories, and standardized implementations. Concrete and testable. ADVANCE.
