The double-bunch mode of the J-PARC facility introduces serious ambiguities in the neutron induced cross-section measurement in the fast neutron energy region. The neutron filtering technique is applied in the ANNRI beamline in order to produce quasi-monoenergetic neutron beams. In this work, different filter configurations with Fe and Si were tested and their performance as neutron filter is presented.
