Optimal two-term offset windowing for fractional delay

Fractional-sample delay in discrete-time systems is often provided by special FIR filters which are asymmetric about mid-sequence. Here we preserve the appeal of sine-sequence fractional delayers (simplicity and single-parameter delay tuning) by devising a two-term raised-cosine window which delivers fractional-delay filters comparable to the best obtainable by highly regarded optimisation approaches
