Spectrum analyzer having common two-channel filters, especially for voice recognition

Abstract From the Canadian patent

Abstract of the Disclosure, A spectrum analyzer comprises a plurality of filters each provided with a low-pass output and a high-pass output both having the same cutoff frequency which is different in the case of the different filters. Switching means are provided for periodically connecting pairs of filters in cascade during a first time interval between one input for signals to be analyzed and a filtered-signal transmission channel assigned to each pair of filters. One of the filters of each pair has a high-pass (or respectively low-pass) output connected to the input of the other filter whose utilization output is the low-pass (or respectively high-pass) output. The switching means also …
