HOHMANN2002_MIXER - Create new mixer object within HOHMANN2002 filterbank framework

Program code:

function mixer = hohmann2002_mixer(fb, delay, iterations)
%HOHMANN2002_MIXER Create new mixer object within HOHMANN2002 filterbank framework
%   Usage: mixer = hohmann2002_mixer(fb, delay)
%          mixer = hohmann2002_mixer(fb, delay, iterations)
%
%   Input parameters:
%     fb         : A filterbank structure as created by HOHMANN2002
%                  The mixer created by this function can
%                  act as part of a synthesizer that resynthesizes the output
%                  from the input signal analyzed by fb. 
%     delay      : A delay structure as created by HOHMANN2002_DELAY, together
%                  with the mixer created by this function, this delay can
%                  form a synthesizer.
%     iterations : The gain factors are approximated numerically in
%                  iterations. If this parameter is omitted, then the
%                  number of iterations from fb will be used. 
%
%   HOHMANN2002_MIXER creates a mixer object with gain factors suitable
%   to calculate a weighted sum of the bands present in the output of the
%   given delay.  The gain factors are computed using a numerical optimization
%   method described in Herzke & Hohmann (2007).
