Abstract :
Characteristics of window functions provided by B-spline functions are analyzed in comparison to other known windows. For the same highest-sidelobe level, those windows have a mainlobe bandwidth between those of Gaussian and cos/sup a/ x windows are as good as those of cos/sup a/ x ones in the sidelobe falloff.<>
