Abstract
A stereo decoder includes a first digital filter for producing a first filtered composite audio signal and a second digital filter for producing a second filtered composite audio signal. A sum/difference network produces a left channel signal and a right channel signal. A processor executes operational instructions that calculate a first corner frequency of a first digital filter based on a signal quality of the FM signal, calculate a first set of filter coefficients for the first digital filter based on the first corner frequency and an approximation of a filter transform, calculate a second corner frequency of a second digital filter based on the signal quality, and calculate a second set of filter coefficients for the second digital filter, based on the second corner frequency and the approximation of the filter transform.
