If wp>ws, then the filter is a high pass filter. //If wp and ws are vectors of length 2, then the passband interval is defined by wp and the stopband interval is defined by ws. //If wp is contained within the lower and upper limits of ws, the filter is a band-pass filter. If ws is contained within the lower and upper limits of wp, the filter is a band-stop or band-reject filter. //Examples //[a,b]=ellipord(0.2, 0.5, 0.7, 0.4) //a = 1 //b = 0.20000 rhs = argn(2) lhs = argn(1) if(rhs~=4) error("Wrong number of input arguments.") end select(lhs) case 1 then n = callOctave("ellipord",Wp,Ws,Rp,Rs) case 2 then [n,Wp] = callOctave("ellipord",Wp,Ws,Rp,Rs) end endfunction
