In this paper, we use the frequency-response masking (FRM) approach to design prototype filters for cosine-modulated filter banks in the nearly-perfect reconstruction case. With such approach, it is possible to design a FRM filter with overall order almost equal to the direct-form FIR design, with only slight changes in the values of the inter-carrier and inter-symbol interferences and the atte...

In this paper, an Adjustable Rate Mortgage (ARM) and a Fixed Rate Mortgage (FRM) are formalized and studied in a simple continuous-time setting under the assumption of a simple one-factor Affine Term Structure (ATS). Through an application of existing results from ATS theory, it is shown that when the short rate reaches a certain pre-determined boundary, the constant payment stream on a new FRM...

Flood risk management (FRM) aims to integrate necessary technical measures with environmental and societal approaches. Focusing on the process governance of how plan, implement, maintain solutions therefore becomes essential. Among different stakeholders, landowners are a key group be considered. This contribution elaborates interconnections between land policy, FRM private ownership. It is bas...

The study of flood management has experienced a paradigmatic shift over the past two decades. Particularly notable are embracement risk (FRM) and comparative analysis governance (FRG), meaning complex institutional arrangements that shape behavior state societal actors concerning FRM. Thousands publications have addressed these themes, this field is ripe for systematic consolidates structures r...

In the upcoming years, challenge of exponential growth in tree planting activities matching climate crisis, which requires use targeted and adapted plant material, calls for creating an updated framework Italian forest nursery sector, both basic materials (BM) reproductive (FRM). The present paper aims at highlighting pros cons public system and, same time, characterizing current organization p...

This paper provides financial planning aspect by modeling the impact of mortgage rate changes on size payments for ARMS. study uses a simulation approach to model choice between fixed (FRM} and an adjustable (ARM). Our simulations help assess therisks benefits choosing ARM rather than FRM. We represent risk with distributions present value cost variety lifeperiods.

Energy storage (ES) can help the renewable energy sources to smooth their output and enhance profits, which promotes installation of ES. However, it is inappropriate for small-scale communities (REC) invest costly ES, requests a new business model explore possibility rent ES more returns. This paper proposes an rental strategy REC participate in frequency regulation market (FRM). Firstly, FRM m...

We provide an extension of the notion of chain-valued frame introduced by Pultr and Rodabaugh in [Category theoretic aspects of chain-valued frames: parts I and II, Fuzzy Sets and Systems 159 (2008) 501–528 and 529–558] by relaxing the assumption that L be a complete chain. As a result of this investigation we formulate the category L-Frm of L-frames under the weaker assumption that L is a comp...

This paper introduces FIR filter structures for interpolation and decimation by integer factors. They are based on the frequency-response masking (FRM) approach in which the overall filter makes use of periodic model filters and nonperiodic masking filters. By using FRM techniques it is possible to obtain FIR filters requiring few arithmetic operations even when the transition band is narrow. F...

A new cosine-modulated filter bank (CMFB) structure is proposed based on the frequency-response masking (FRM) approach using masking filter decomposition. The resulting structure, the so-called FRM2-CMFB, presents reasonable computational complexity (number of arithmetic operations per output sample) and allows one to design filter banks with extremely large number of bands. The examples includ...
