It is usually defined as either the arithmetic mean or the geometric mean of the lower cutoff frequency and the upper cutoff frequency of a band-pass system or a band-stop system. Typically, the geometric mean is used in systems based on certain transformations of lowpass filter designs, where the frequency response is constructed to be symmetric on a logarithmic frequency scale. The geometric center frequency corresponds to a mapping of the DC response of the prototype lowpass filter, which is a resonant frequency sometimes equal to the peak frequency of such systems, for example as in a Butterworth filter. The arithmetic definition is used in more general situations, such as in describing passband telecommunication systems, where filters are not necessarily symmetric but are treated on a linear frequency scale for applications such as frequency-division multiplexing. == References == - [[Professional Practice/Codes & Standards/National Building Code of India/Part 06 - Structural Design/Section 7A - Prefabricated Concrete]] - [[Interior Architecture/Renovation and Conservation/Adaptive Reuse]] - [[Building Construction/Specifications and Detailing/Architectural Detailing]] - [[Professional Practice/Construction Management/Project Management]] - [[Urban and Planning/Housing]] - [[Building Services/Vertical Transportation]] - [[History and Theory/Temple Architecture/Stone Temples of India]] - [[Design/Building Typologies]] - [[Professional Practice/Codes & Standards/National Building Code of India/Part 10 - Landscape and Signs/Section 2 - Signs and Display]] - [[Wiki-Architecture/Building Materials]] == External links == Calculations and comparisons between the geometric mean and the arithmetic mean
