Technical publications by Joe Rothweiler a consultant in the field of
Digital Signal Processing: Filters, Speech, etc. Most are from IEEE
journals and conference proceedings.
This is my personal web page; I use it to
provide convenient access to things I have written that are publicly
available.
I am now working as a consultant, using the name Sensicomm LLC.

Land Mobile Radio
On Aug 19 2016 I gave a presentation at the "Enhanced Digital Land Mobile Radio Seminar."
Slides are now posted on Github, at

My wife's college roomate is heavily involved with a nonprofit organization,
Mission Lazarus in Honduras. In April 2010 we went with a group to see the
facility and help out. Videos and links here:

Computing Line Spectrum Pairs. Line Spectrum
Pairs (or Line Spectrum Frequencies) are a parameter set that is frequently
used in speech coding applications. I have two publications that together
describe an efficient way to transform an all-pole model of speech to
the LSP/LSF representation. See
www.myown1.com/joe/lsf
Polyphase Quadrature Filters. This is a technique
for efficiently filtering a signal into multiple bands and then recombining
the bands to recover the original signal.
A description, including the original paper, is here. Other publications.
Other publications include an implementation of the Prime Factor version of the Fast Fourier Transform,
as well as papers and patents on speech coding and other signal processing techniques.
Some info about the PFA is available on the family website
