+## Usage: qp_kaiser (nb, at, linear)
+##
+## Computes a finite impulse response (FIR) filter for use with a
+## quasi-perfect reconstruction polyphase-network filter bank. This
+## version utilizes a Kaiser window to shape the frequency response of
+## the designed filter. Tha number nb of bands and the desired
+## attenuation at in the stop-band are given as parameters.
+##
+## The Kaiser window is multiplied by the ideal impulse response
+## h(n)=a.sinc(a.n) and converted to its minimum-phase version by means
+## of a Hilbert transform.
+##
+## By using a third non-null argument, the minimum-phase calculation is
+## ommited at all.
