Help in converting to integer

[RishiRP]

I am trying to implement an fir filter with fixed point representation.
I have the coefficients of this filter( It is for 9/7 daubechies)

0.602949018326;
0.266864118442;
-0.078223266528;
-0.016864118442;
0.026748757410;

-1.115087052456;
0.591271763114;
0.057543526228;
-0.091271763114;

I need to use these in an integer form to implement a synthesizable
vhdl code. How can I do this? could someone please explain how to do
this( put it either as integers and then reconvert back) or use fixed
point.

Thanks

yeah thats one way, put them as integers then do the reconversion but
its better if you do normalisation and proceed with the fixed format.

What do you mean, could you tell me how to do that, i.e the
normalization and dealing with the fixed format?
