Hi Yaniv,

Hmm, I took a look at that, but I'm not sure
it helps. He says it's for filters that aren't
bandpass, lowpass, etc., but my filters need
to be just plain bandpass filters.

Also, if I understand him (maybe I don't), he's
describing a long FIR filter. I'd rather use IIR
filters because they have a lot fewer taps for
the same accuracy, so they run a lot faster.

The way Tom did it looks good, but I can't
find anything that describes how to implement
it. (I understand the general idea of making
quadrature-phase and in-phase streams, but I don't
know how to select the sine/cosine frequency or
how to recombine the reference signals with the
filtered signals after they come out of the lowpass
filter.)

The other way that looks possible is to make
individual IIR filters on the fly for each desired
frequency band. The trouble with that is, I don't
know how to calculate the phase of the result,
and I need phase.

Rob
