Why do RTA DEQs use pink noise?

I'm working on a project for a DSP lab class and as you may have guessed from the topic, the project involves programming a real time analyzer DEQ. Perhaps I should have asked this in the planning/research stage, but why do RTA equalizers, such as the DEQ2496, flatten the frequency response of the ...

Code for generating 1/f^alpha pink noise

Hi, In a recent project I required a source of 1/f^(5/3) pink noise, but was unable to find any code or explanation on how to perform that. The DSP Generation of Pink Noise page[1] contains extensive information on generating 1/f pink noise, but has no mention of 1/f^alpha pink noise. I...

pink noise

How can identify pink noise statistically, as we identify that this signal is speech and this is noise, because using autocorrelation and harmonics analysis leads to pink noise identified as signal. ...

pink noise

Hi ALL I need an algorithm to generate pink noise (a drop of 20dB/decade) from white noise (use in simulink) that is suitable for a frequency range of 1 to 100 Hz. Any suggestion is appreciated. Regards Karl ...

pre-made bitstream, pink noise with only one RC filter?

Is there a way to generate a bit stream, and output it directly to a single stage simple RC filter, and the output be pink noise up to some cutoff, say 20khz? This would seem to be a very easy, cheap, simple way to make a pink noise generator. I assume you cant output the square-wave bitstream d...

Generation of Pink Noise using 3dB/octave filters on digital white noise

Reasonablenes (NOT 'correctness') of using DCT in place of DFT

Interpreting noise

Re: Acoustic room response - measurement and interpretation

What is a "wideband tone"? The standard ways are an impulse, swept sinusoids, and pink/white noise. I believe that pink noise is the most commonly used method. Once the data is in the PC, an FFT will give you the room's frequency response. A common method is to use a real-time spectrum an...

Does perfect white noise really exist?

A simple question: Based on the classical definition of "White Noise" (a random process which has zero autocorrelation, and a purely flat PSD from -INF to +INF), measurement of white noise to determine these properties (rxx, PSD, mean, variance, skewness and kurtosis) poses a paradox: When we...
