Abstract: In this paper newly reported Cosh window function is
used in the design of prototype filter for M-channel Near Perfect
Reconstruction (NPR) Cosine Modulated Filter Bank (CMFB). Local
search optimization algorithm is used for minimization of distortion
parameters by optimizing the filter coefficients of prototype filter.
Design examples are presented and comparison has been made with
Kaiser window based filterbank design of recently reported work.
The result shows that the proposed design approach provides lower
distortion parameters and improved far-end suppression than the
Kaiser window based design of recent reported work.
