Fast calculation algorithm for discrete resonance-based band-pass filter

A fast calculation algorithm for discrete resonance-based band-pass filter (DRBF) computes the Discrete resonance-based transform (DRT) of a discrete-time signal. Similarly as Discrete Fourier transform, Discrete resonance-based transform converts a signal from its original domain (time, space or other domain) to a representation in the frequency domain.
A DRT formulation is triggered by an inner ear (cochlea) simulation research. The stand-alone calculation algorithm related to the DRBF filter (the main element of DRT), produces its output with a delay of just one sampling period. This is an advantage over Discrete Fourier transform and Discrete wavelet transform since the latter two produce their results with a delay of (usually) many sampling periods. The algorithm’s calculation cost is only 3 multiplications and 3 additions per sample, and does not require long memory buffers, which is another advantage over Discrete Fourier transform. However, Discrete resonance-based transform does not surpass the precision of Discrete Fourier transform and Discrete wavelet transform. Still, it may prove essential when the noise-artifacts of a near-real-world simulation are necessary in order to produce some specific auditory-perception phenomena.
