I haven't had a look at the code, but in general the Remez method is always superior. In fact, the last course I had on filter design taught me the window method is only really used in quick-and-dirty filter design and in teaching, because it's so simple to explain (plus, it's easier to code). > Moreover, what would bring faster results, a designer using the window > method or one with the remez method? I doubt the window method can be beaten in terms of speed, as it's only an FFT and a multiplication, but I don't know how much faster it is. However, usually the filter design is not in the time critical part of an application, whereas the number of taps has direct influence on performance. Given the choice, I'd say use remez when possible. martin -- Martin Braun Institut fuer Nachrichtentechnik Universitaet Karlsruhe http://www.int.uni-karlsruhe.de _______________________________________________ Discuss-gnuradio mailing list Discuss-gnuradio@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss-gnuradio
