Designing FIR Filters Using the Parks-McClellan Algorithm

The Parks-McClellan Filter Design Method[1]¶

                                      [2]Paolo Prandoni, [3]LCAV, EPFL

The Parks-McClellan (PM) algorithm is a clever application of advanced polynomial fitting techniques to the problem of FIR filter design. In this notebook we will explore the key ideas behind the method by considering the design of a simple Type-I lowpass filter. NOTE: This notebook uses interactive widgets. If the interactive controls do not work or show up, please fo

Block Processing of Audio Files Using Stateful FIR Filters

Block-processing of audio files[1]¶

                                      [2]Paolo Prandoni, [3]LCAV, EPFL

This notebook shows a simple way to process audio files (in WAV format) in a block-by-block fashion; this is useful in two cases 1. when you want to process a data stream in real time but you can accept a small processing delay; in this case a buffered approach can yield computational gains 2. when you need to process a large file that does not fit entirely into

Advantages of Digital Transmission over Analog Transmission

[1]Paolo Prandoni, [2]EPFL Analog vs Digital Transmission In this notebook we will explore the advantages of digital transmission over analog transmission. We will model the case of transmission over a long (e.g. transoceanic) cable in which several repeaters are used to compensate for the attenuation incurred by the signal. In [1]: import matplotlib import matplotlib.pyplot as plt import numpy as np import IPython from scipy.io import wavfile plt.rcParams["figure.figsize"] = (14,4)

Voice Transformation Techniques Using Digital Signal Processing

A Gallery of Voice Transformers[1]¶

                                      [2]Paolo Prandoni, [3]LCAV, EPFL

In this notebook we will explore various ways to implement a system that changes the voice of a speaker. Typical applications for these techniques, strictly sorted by plausibility, include international spy missions and prank telephone calls, and devices such as the one displayed here can be easily bought on the web... or in a novelty shop.

Exploring Quantization and Oversampling through One-Bit Music

One-Bit Music[1]¶ In this notebook we will talk about quantization and oversampling and we will do so by taking a trip down memory lane to revisit the early from monophonic square waves, introduce polyphony by way of pulse-width modulation and finish with the basics of sigma-delta quantization. pacman In [1]: import matplotlib import matplotlib.pyplot as plt import numpy as np import scipy.signal as sp from scipy.io import wavfile import IPython In [2]: import sys ! wget -q -O mus

Numerical Precision in DFT Computation

Numerical Precision in DFT Computation[1]¶

                                      [2]Paolo Prandoni, [3]LCAV, EPFL

In [1]:

first our usual bookkeeping

%matplotlib inline import matplotlib import matplotlib.pyplot as plt import numpy as np In this notebook we will look at some numerical issues associated to the DFT; in particular we we will look at the differences in precision between the "naive" way of computing the DFT and the FFT algorithm. As a quick reminder, the definitions of t

Simulating a Telephone Channel using FIR Filter Design

A Telephone Channel Simulator[1]¶ In this notebook we will develop a filter that simulates the effect of a standard telephone channel. In [1]: %matplotlib inline import matplotlib.pyplot as plt import numpy as np import IPython import scipy.signal as sp from scipy.io import wavfile In [2]: plt.rcParams["figure.figsize"] = (14,4) implicit sampling rate will be the internal "clock" of our simulation.

Filtering Music: Extracting Audio Frequencies Using Filters

Filtering Music[1]¶

                                      [2]Paolo Prandoni, [3]LCAV, EPFL

In this notebook we will design and use filters to extract specific audio frequencies from a music file. In [1]: %matplotlib inline import matplotlib.pyplot as plt import numpy as np import IPython import scipy.signal as sp from scipy.io import wavfile infringment...) In [2]: IPython.display.Audio(s, rate=SF) Out[2]: Your browser does not support the audio element.

Understanding the Haar Basis for Grayscale Image Compression

A Basis for Grayscale Images[1]¶

                                      [2]Paolo Prandoni, [3]LCAV, EPFL

The concept of "basis" for a vector space is one of the most profound and fruitful ideas in linear algebra. Basis vectors are the "building blocks" that all other vectors are built from; by "disassembling" a vector into a linear combination of basis elements we are able to "look inside" the vector and highlight many of its relevant features. A vector space has an infinite number o

Whistle-Activated Keylock System Implementation

Whistling Keylock[1]¶ In this notebook we will implement a simple "whistle-activated" keylock, that is, an access control system where the password is a pre-defined melody. To program the lock, you record your musical passphrase and then, to open the lock, you whistle it back. Although the implementation will be simple and skip most of the fine details that would be necessary to produce a truly robust system, we need to take into account at least the following points: * The syste

Digital Simulation of Guitar Feedback in I Feel Fine by The Beatles

I Feel Fine, Digitally[1]¶ This notebook is a little musing inspired by the "internal mechanics" of a very famous audio snippet, namely the guitar sound at the beginning of the song "I Feel Fine", written and recorded by the Beatles in 1964. The historical significance of the record lies in the following claim by John Lennon:

 "I defy anybody to find a record... unless it is some old blues
 record from 1922... that uses feedback that way. So I claim it for
 the Beatles. Before H
