## Compute butterworth filter order and cutoff for the desired response
## characteristics. Rp is the allowable decibels of ripple in the pass 
## band. Rs is the minimum attenuation in the stop band.
##
## [n, Wc] = buttord(Wp, Ws, Rp, Rs)
##     Low pass (Wp<Ws) or high pass (Wp>Ws) filter design.  Wp is the
##     pass band edge and Ws is the stop band edge.  Frequencies are
##     normalized to [0,1], corresponding to the range [0,Fs/2].
## 
## [n, Wc] = buttord([Wp1, Wp2], [Ws1, Ws2], Rp, Rs)
##     Band pass (Ws1<Wp1<Wp2<Ws2) or band reject (Wp1<Ws1<Ws2<Wp2)
##     filter design. Wp gives the edges of the pass band, and Ws gives
##     the edges of the stop band.
##
## Theory: |H(W)|^2 = 1/[1+(W/Wc)^(2N)] = 10^(-R/10)
## With some algebra, you can solve simultaneously for Wc and N given
## Ws,Rs and Wp,Rp.  For high pass filters, subtracting the band edges
## from Fs/2, performing the test, and swapping the resulting Wc back
## works beautifully.  For bandpass and bandstop filters this process
## significantly overdesigns.  Artificially dividing N by 2 in this case
## helps a lot, but it still overdesigns.

## Not sure why this was needed, but it generated wrong results:
#  if (any(stop)) type <- ""
## Quoting Andy Babour:
# I'm writing to see if 'signal::buttord'  is producing correct results.
# Here's an example (using version 0.7-3):
#
#    b <- buttord(.003, .001, 0.5, 29)
#    try(plot(freqz(butter(b)))) # error
#
#
#I don't doubt the value of the resulting filter order, but it sets
#'type' incorrectly to an empty string; whereas, the documentation
#implies it should be the string "high".  Conversely, if I flip Ws and Wp
#the result correctly shows type="low".
#
#I can easily get around this with
#
#    b$type <- "high"
#    plot(freqz(butter(b))) # ok 


  ## warp the target frequencies according to the bilinear transform
  Ws <- (2/T) * tan(pi * Ws / T)
  Wp <- (2/T) * tan(pi * Wp / T)
  
  ## compute minimum n which satisfies all band edge conditions
  ## the factor 1/length(Wp) is an artificial correction for the
  ## band pass/stop case, which otherwise significantly overdesigns.
  qs <- log(10^(Rs/10) - 1)
  qp <- log(10^(Rp/10) - 1)
  n <- ceiling(max(0.5*(qs - qp) / log(Ws/Wp)) /length(Wp))

  ## compute -3dB cutoff given Wp, Rp and n
  Wc <- exp(log(Wp) - qp/2/n)

  ## unwarp the returned frequency
  Wc <- atan(T/2*Wc)*T/pi
  
  ## if high pass, reverse the sense of the test
  Wc[stop] <- 1 - Wc[stop]
  FilterOfOrder(n = n, Wc = Wc, type = type)
