Example: Polyphase Analysis of the Weighted Overlap Add Case: 50% Overlap, Zero-Padding, and a Non-Rectangular Window

We may convert the previous example to a weighted overlap-add (WOLA) (§8.6) filter bank by replacing each $w(m)$ by $\sqrt{w(m)}$ and introducing these gains also between the $\hbox{\sc IDFT}$ and upsamplers, as shown in Fig.11.27.
