Question: A linear - phase 2 5 6 - tap FIR digital filter is to be implemented as part of an audio processing system operating at

A linear-phase 256-tap FIR digital filter is to be implemented as part of an audio
processing system operating at a sampling rate of 48 kHz. Calculate the number of
multiplies and additions required to process a 10-second duration of a (real) audio
signal, if the filter is implemented using a standard transversal filter structure.
Calculate the possible saving in the number of multiplies required to process the same
duration of input signal, if the filter is implemented using fast convolution in the
frequency domain, taking other possible computational savings into account. Each
frame consists of 10 milliseconds of signal, zero-padded with a further 32 zero-valued
samples to permit the use of the FFT. Hamming windowing is also applied. You may
assume that the coefficients of the Hamming window are pre-computed, and that there
is overlap of 50% between successive frames. You may ignore any additional overhead
associated with overlap-add processing of the FFT output.
