All filter transfer functions were derived from analog prototypes (that
are shown below for each EQ filter type) and had been digitized using the
Bilinear Transform. BLT frequency warping has been taken into account
for both significant frequency relocation and for bandwidth readjustment.
First, given a biquad transfer function defined as:
b0 + b1*z^-1 + b2*z^-2
H(z) = ------------------------ (Eq 1)
a0 + a1*z^-1 + a2*z^-2
This shows 6 coefficients instead of 5 so, depending on your
architechture, you will likely normalize a0 to be 1 and perhaps also
b0 to 1 (and collect that into an overall gain coefficient). Then
your transfer function would look like:
(b0/a0) + (b1/a0)*z^-1 + (b2/a0)*z^-2
H(z) = --------------------------------------- (Eq 2)
1 + (a1/a0)*z^-1 + (a2/a0)*z^-2
or
1 + (b1/b0)*z^-1 + (b2/b0)*z^-2
H(z) = (b0/a0) * --------------------------------- (Eq 3)
1 + (a1/a0)*z^-1 + (a2/a0)*z^-2
The most straight forward implementation would be the Direct I form
(using Eq 2):
y[n] = (b0/a0)*x[n] + (b1/a0)*x[n-1] + (b2/a0)*x[n-2]
- (a1/a0)*y[n-1] - (a2/a0)*y[n-2] (Eq 4)
This is probably both the best and the easiest method to implement in
the 56K.
Now, given:
sampleRate (the sampling frequency)
frequency ("wherever it's happenin', man." "center" frequency
or "corner" (-3 dB) frequency, or shelf midpoint frequency,
depending on which filter type)
dBgain (used only for peaking and shelving filters)
bandwidth in octaves (between -3 dB frequencies for BPF and notch
or between midpoint (dBgain/2) gain frequencies for peaking EQ)
_or_ Q (the EE kind of definition, except for peakingEQ in which A*Q
is the classic EE Q. That adjustment in definition was done so
that a boost of N dB followed by a cut of N dB for identical Q and
frequency results in a perfectly flat unity gain filter or "wire".)
_or_ S, a "shelf slope" parameter (for shelving EQ only). When S = 1,
the shelf slope is as steep as it can be and remain monotonically
increasing or decreasing gain with frequency. The shelf slope, in
dB/octave, remains proportional to S for all other values.
First compute a few intermediate variables:
A = sqrt[ 10^(dBgain/20) ]
= 10^(dBgain/40) (for peaking and shelving EQ filters only)
omega = 2*pi*frequency/sampleRate
sin = sin(omega)
cos = cos(omega)
alpha = sin/(2*Q) (if Q is specified)
= sin*sinh[ ln(2)/2 * bandwidth * omega/sin ] (if bandwidth is specified)
The relationship between bandwidth and Q is
1/Q = 2*sinh[ln(2)/2*bandwidth*omega/sin] (digital filter using BLT)
or 1/Q = 2*sinh[ln(2)/2*bandwidth]) (analog filter prototype)
beta = sqrt(A)/Q (for shelving EQ filters only)
= sqrt(A)*sqrt[ (A + 1/A)*(1/S - 1) + 2 ] (if shelf slope is specified)
= sqrt[ (A^2 + 1)/S - (A-1)^2 ]
The relationship between shelf slope and Q is
1/Q = sqrt[(A + 1/A)*(1/S - 1) + 2]
Then compute the coefficients for whichever filter type you want:
The analog prototypes are shown for normalized frequency.
The bilinear transform substitutes:
1 1 - z^-1
s <- -------------- * ----------
tan(omega/2) 1 + z^-1
and makes use of these trig identities:
sin(w) 1 - cos(w)
tan(w/2) = ------------ (tan(w/2))^2 = ------------
1 + cos(w) 1 + cos(w)
