Fade - smoothen a signals on- and offset

Program code:

function [ y ] = fade( x,t_fade,Fs )
%   Fade function takes a sequency and adds a rise and fall to its begining
%   and its end to minimize the pectral splatter.
%   t_fade: fading time
%   Fs: sampling frequency

f_fade=(0.01*25)/t_fade; % the best fading frequency for t_fade=0.01s turns to be 26 Hz. Find the appropriate f_fade for other t_fade values.
