Hi Dhar and to other group members,

the form of the exponential filter is not shown in your post. can you please re-post it again?

and by the way, what should be the gain factor of the rectangular sliding window? I doubt that it is 1.

and lastly, what measurement method must the detector do? is it the RMS method specified in the recommendation?

thanks to you all and have a good day!:)
