It has been observed empirically that each coe cient in a Parks-McClellan lter converges to a steady state value as the lter length increases. This suggests the possibility of obtaining lters that are near optimal while "re-using" lter coe cients from shorter lters in the design of longer lters. In the context of approximate processing this then allows a ltering operation to be done in stages. ...

Anthropogenic noise is debatably one of the most common threats to national parks' resources. Park visitors and workers generally suffer from adverse effects of noise from on- and off-road vehicles. The parks, studied here, are located in strictly urban areas, surrounded by streets with intense vehicle traffic. This study assesses the soundscape of urban parks in two cities of Odisha State, on ...
