Determine Critical Bandwidth<br />
Calculate the critical bandwidth<br />
Critical<br />
Bandwidth<br />
For this possible tone at 249 Hz (f c = 249), the critical<br />
bandwidth is 104.43 Hz<br />
Center critical bandwidth around the peak. For this<br />
example 196.8 to 301.2 Hz.<br />
This will not symmetrically fit due to the resolution. How<br />
to specifically deal with this is not covered in the<br />
standard.<br />
For our purposes, the critical bandwidth is 102 Hz<br />
covering the lines from 198 to 300 Hz<br />
