Abstract

A new type of second-order digital parametric equalizer is proposed whose frequency response matches closely that of its analog counterpart throughout the Nyquist interval and does not suffer from the prewarping effect of the bilinear transformation near the Nyquist frequency. Closed-form design equations and direct-form and lattice realizations are derived.

1. IntroductionConventional bilinear-transformation-based methods of designing second-order digital parametricequalizers [1-11] result in frequency responses that fall off faster than the corresponding analogequalizers near the Nyquist frequency due to the prewarping nature of the bilinear transformation.This effect becomes particularly noticeable when the peak frequencies and widths are relativelyhigh. Figure 1 illustrates this effect.

In this paper, we introduce an additional degree of freedom into the design, namely, the gain at the Nyquist frequency, and derive a new class of digital parametric equalizers that closely match their analog counterparts over the entire Nyquist interval and do not suffer from the prewarping effect of the bilinear transformation.

The design specifications are the quantities{f

s ,f 0 ,Δf,G 0 ,G 1 ,G,G B }, namely, the sampling rate f s , the boost/cut peak frequencyf 0 , the bandwidthΔf, the reference gain G0 at DC, the gainG 1 at the Nyquist frequency f s /2, the boost/cut peak gainGatf 0 , and the bandwidth gainG B (that is, the level at which the bandwidth

Δfis measured.)

All previous methods of designing second-order equalizers assume G 1 =G0 (usually set equal to unity.) In these methods, the bilinear transformation is used to transform an analog equalizer

with equivalent specifications into the digital one. As remarked by Bristow-Johnson [9], all of these

designs are essentially equivalent to each other, up to a different definition of the bandwidth

Δfand

bandwidth gain G B . For the equivalent analog equalizer, the quantityG 0 =G 1 represents the gain at DC and at infinity, with the latter being mapped onto the Nyquist frequencyf s /2 by the bilinear transformation.

In the method proposed here, we allow

G 1 to be different fromG 0 . In particular, we setG 1 equal to the gain an analog equalizer would have atf s /2 if it were not bilinearly transformed. This condition on G 1 , together with the requirements that the gain at DC beG 0 , that there be a peak maximum (or minimum) at f 0 , that the peak gain beG, and that the bandwidth beΔfat levelG B provide five constraints that fix uniquely the five coefficients of the second-order digital filter. The resulting digital filter matches the corresponding analog filter as much as possible, given that there are only five parameters to adjust. The matching is exact atf=0,f 0 ,f s /2, and the two filters have the same bandwidth Δf. These design goals are illustrated in Fig. 2.

1 Thus, such a digital equalizer can be used to better emulate the sound quality achieved by an analog equalizer. This is the main motivation of this paper. Moreover, setting G 0 =0, we also obtain more realistic modeling of resonant filters of prescribed peaks and widths for use in music and speech synthesis applications. In the following sections, we summarize the conventional analog and digital equalizer designs, present the new design and some simulations, and discuss direct and lattice form realizations, and the issue of bandwidth. We also give a small MATLAB function for the new design.

2. Conventional Analog and Digital Equalizers

Here, we review briefly the design of analog and digital equalizers, following the discussion of Ref. [11]. A second-order analog equalizer with gain G 0 at DC and at infinity has transfer function:

H(s)=G

0 s 2 +Bs+G 0 20 s 2 +As+Ω 20 (1) and magnitude response: |H(Ω)| 2 =G 20 2 20 2 +B 2 2 2 20 2 +A 2 2 (2) where Ω=2πfis the physical frequency in rads/sec andΩ 0 =2πf 0 the peak frequency. The filter coefficients AandBare fixed by the two requirements that the gain beGatΩ 0 and that the bandwidth be measured at level G B . These requirements can be stated as follows: |H(Ω 0 2 =G 2 ,|H(Ω)| 2 =G 2 B (3) where the solutions of the second equation are the right and left bandedge frequencies, say 2 and 1 . They satisfy the geometric-mean property: 1 2 20 (4)

Defining the bandwidth

ΔΩ=2πΔfas the difference of the bandedge frequencies,ΔΩ=Ω 2 1 the two conditions in Eq. (3) determine the filter coefficients as follows: A=? G 2 B -G 20 G 2 -G 2 B

ΔΩ, B=GA(5)

The equalizer"s gain at a desired Nyquist frequency f s /2 can be obtained by evaluating Eq. (2) at s =2π(f s /2)=πf s , giving: G 21
=G 20 2 s 20 2 +B 2 2 s 2 s 20 2 +A 2 2 s (6) A digital equalizer can be designed by applying the bilinear transformation to an equivalent analog filter of the form of Eq. (1). The bilinear transformation is defined here as: s= 1-z -1 1+z -1 ,Ω=tan 2
