Overview

Subband derivative

Discussion

Computes the derivative of frequency domain data individually within each subband. The derivative is defined as:

$y[n] = K/T * (x[n] - x[n-1])$ where T is the sample period and K is the optional gain parameter. The module sets the default starting value to x[-1] = 0.

The discrete derivative is similar to the continuous time derivative. For example, if the input is a sine wave at 1 kHz, then the output will be a cosine at 1 kHz scaled by 2*pi*1000.

The hidden internal array .lastValue stores the previous value x[n-1] between blocks. The length of the array is set by the prebuild function to the number of subbands.

Type Definition

    ModuleInstanceDescriptor instance;            // Common Audio Weaver module instance structure
    FLOAT32 gain;                                 // Additional gain.
    FLOAT32* lastValue;                           // Previous value x[n-1].
} ModuleSbDerivativeClass;

MATLAB Usage

File Name: sb_derivative_module.m

 M=sb_derivative_module(NAME)  
 Subband derivative module in which the derivative value of each 
 subband is separately computed.  The module only operates on real
 data and mathematically computes:
   y[n] = 1/dt * (x[n] - x[n-1])
 where dt is the time step, dt = 1/SR.  The module has a multichannel
 input and computes the derivative per channel.  Arguments:
    NAME - name of the module.
