dietz2011_filterbank - filterbank of Dietz 2011 binaural model

Program code:

function [outsig_fine,fc_fine,outsig_env,fc_env,outsig_ild] = dietz2011_filterbank(insig,fs,fc,varargin)
%dietz2011_filterbank  filterbank of Dietz 2011 binaural model
%   Usage: [...] = dietz2011_filterbank(insig,fs,fc);
%
%   Input parameters:
%       insig       : binaural signal for which values should be calculated
%       fs          : sampling rate (Hz)
%       fc          : center frequencies of gammatone filterbank
%
%   Output parameters:
%       outsig_fine : output signal of fine structure filter
%       fc_fine     : center frequencies processed with fine structure filter
%       outsig_env  : output signal of envelope filter
%       fc_env      : center frequencies processed with modulation filter
%       outsig_ild  : output signal of ILD filter
%
%   DIETZ2011_FILTERBANK(insig,fs,fc) filters all frequency channels
%   of insig with a modulation filterbank consisting of three filters.
%   One centered at the center frequencies for the fine structure of the
%   signals. One centered at a fixed frequency of 135 Hz for the envelope of
%   the signals. And one a lowpass filter with a cutoff frequency of 30 Hz
%   for the calculation of the interaural level difference.
%
%   DIETZ2011_FILTERBANK accepts the following optional parameters:
%
%     'filter_order',fo
%                    Filter order for the two gammatone filter used for the fine
%                    structure and envelope of the modulation filter bank. The
%                    default value is 2.
%
%     'filter_attenuation_db',fadb
%                    Filter attenuation for the two gammatone filter used for the fine
%                    structure and envelope of the modulation filter bank. The
%                    default value is 10.
%                     
%     'fine_filter_finesse',fff
%                    Filter finesse (determines the bandwidth with fc/finesse)
%                    for the fine structure gammatone filter. The defulat value
%                    is 3.
%
%     'mod_center_frequency_hz',mcf_hz
%                    Center frequency of the gammatone envelope filter. The
%                    default value is 135.
%
%     'mod_filter_finesse',mff
%                    Filter finesse (determines the bandwidth with fc/finesse)
%                    for the envelope gammatone filter. The defulat value is 8.
% 
%     'level_filter_cutoff_hz',lfc_hz
%                    Cutoff frequency off the low pass filter used for ILD
%                    calculation. The default value is 30.
%
%     'level_filter_order',lforder
%                    Order of low pass filter for the ILD calculation. The
%                    default value is 2.
