Reports, Test Cases, Etc.

Some notes concerning the Cauer filters:

•  About the Arithmetic-Geometric Mean, Jacobian and Inverse Jacobian functions.
•  About the accuracy of sn when using an approximation with theta-functions.
•  About the Skwirzynski transformations: Cauer types A, B and C.

General information about Wave Digital structures:

•  Wave Digital 2-Port and 3-Port Adapters.

With respect to LWDFs:

•  Calculation of the Coefficients of a Lattice Wave Digital Filter.

Two detailed examples:

•  A 5th Order Vlach filter with (Contributing) Unit Element.
•  Realizations of a 6th Order Symmetrical Band-Pass Filter.

The Instruction Manual for a laboratory exercise (2006/2007) based on the Scheduling Toolbox:

•  Laboratory Exercise ET4054, Methods and Algorithms for System Design.
  Note: Isn't it curious to see that even in the 2019/2020 course this manual (and my scheduling toolbox) is still being used, just as in all the years before? Completely unchanged, except for the fact that my name has disappeared from the front page.

Description of a hardware implementation of a block size 36 IMDCT (called an 18-point IMDCT here, given the redundancy in the input and output values) for usage in an MP3 decoder, designed with the aid of the Scheduling Toolbox:

•  Implementation of an 18-point IMDCT on FPGA..
