Sorry for not replying to you sooner.

You wrote:

  "X_window(m) = alpha*X(m) - beta/2 * X(m-N/K) - beta/2 * X(m+N/K)"

I don't think that's correct, but I'll have to do some 
software modeling to be sure.   Your original question is an 
interesting question, and I intend to find the correct 
answer to your question.
