The purpose of this article is to investigate the application of DFT-modulated filter bank in systems with significant spectral component amplification like hearing aid. There is a description of analysis / synthesis method based on short-time Fourier transform (STFT), which is used in most systems of speech information processing. It is shown that DFT-modulated filter bank is a generalization of STFT-method. In analysis / synthesis system based on DFT-modulated filter bank, the input signal is divided into subbands, passing through the analysis filter bank then each subband is amplified and the last step is to reconstruct the signal with synthesis filter bank. However, in digital systems with significant spectral component amplification, the resulting signal is distorted after reconstruction because of amplification factor difference in each subband. The article provides expressions for the distortion and the aliasing functions, allowing to estimate the distortion value, which appears in analysis / synthesis system of DFT-modulated filter bank. Efficient algorithms for calculating the distortion and the aliasing functions are also offered. In future it is planning to develop a procedure for optimizing the DFT-modulated filter bank based on the proposed efficient algorithms for calculating distortion and spectral aliasing in the filter bank.
