Hi Mir Khadim,
The cutoff frequency is defined as the frequency where the power gain is a half, also called as the −3 dB-point, because
In the particular case of the moving average filter, just solve the following equation:
,
where is the cut-off frequency. This should give you the following expression:
,
which is an equation that has no analytical solution, then numericla methods should be used to find . Solutions at are not valid cause the transfer function is not defined. Then, the solutions should be found in the region .
Hope thhis can help to solve your question.
