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 d_n satisfies the Princen-Bradley condition for the MDCT (using the fact that w_M−n = w_n): d_n2 + d_{n + M}2 = 1 (interpreting n and n + M modulo 2M). The KBD window is also symmetric in the proper manner for the MDCT: d_n = d_2M−1−n.

Famous quotes containing the words derived and/or window:

“Jesus wept; Voltaire smiled. From that divine tear and from that human smile is derived the grace of present civilization.”
—Victor Hugo (1802–1885)

“As the end of the century approaches, all our culture is like the culture of flies at the beginning of winter. Having lost their agility, dreamy and demented, they turn slowly about the window in the first icy mists of morning. They give themselves a last wash and brush-up, their ocellated eyes roll, and they fall down the curtains.”
—Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
