  Create an A-weighting filter
  
  This file creates an A-weighting digital filter, which reduces low and high
  frequencies and enhance the middle ones to reflect the ability of the human
  hearing.
  
  The implementation is based on the following standard:

    - IEC/CD 1672: Electroacoustics-Sound Level Meters, IEC, Geneva, Nov.  1996,
  for A- and C-weighting filters.

  Wikipedia</a>
    - <a href="http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/69">Christophe
  Couvreur's 'octave' toolbox</a>
  
  The coefficients in this file have been computed using Christophe Couvreur's
  scripts in octave 3.0 (debian package 1:3.0.5-6+b2 with octave-signal
  1.0.9-1+b1 on i386), with <pre> [b, a] = adsign(1/Fs) </pre> for various
  sampling frequencies.
