Kaiser-Bessel Derived (KBD) Window

A related window function is the Kaiser-Bessel derived (KBD) window, which is designed to be suitable for use with the modified discrete cosine transform (MDCT). The KBD window function is defined in terms of the Kaiser window of length M+1, by the formula:


d_n =
\left\{ \begin{matrix}
\sqrt{\frac{\sum_{j=0}^{n} w_j} {\sum_{j=0}^{M} w_j}} & \mbox{if } 0 \leq n < M \\ \\
\sqrt{\frac{\sum_{j=0}^{2M-1-n} w_j} {\sum_{j=0}^{M} w_j}} & \mbox{if } M \leq n < 2M \\ \\
0 & \mbox{otherwise} \\
\end{matrix} \right.

This defines a window of length 2M, where by construction dn satisfies the Princen-Bradley condition for the MDCT (using the fact that wMn = wn): dn2 + dn + M2 = 1 (interpreting n and n + M modulo 2M). The KBD window is also symmetric in the proper manner for the MDCT: dn = d2M−1−n.

Famous quotes containing the words derived and/or window:

    Those who have been once intoxicated with power, and have derived any kind of emolument from it, even though but for one year, never can willingly abandon it. They may be distressed in the midst of all their power; but they will never look to anything but power for their relief.
    Edmund Burke (1729–1797)

    Our memory is like a shop in the window of which is exposed now one, now another photograph of the same person. And as a rule the most recent exhibit remains for some time the only one to be seen.
    Marcel Proust (1871–1922)
