Abstract(in English) In acoustic propagation in the acoustic pipe, since the characteristic impedance and the propagation constant have singular frequency dependent characteristics, it is difficult to approximate with a digital filter model from the vocal tract analog. From this reason, the realized digital filter has been approximated at a fixed frequency for the above characteristics. In order to improve the above approximation problem, we propose a new approximation method of the digital filter model with high accuracy. We show that the approximation is good agreement with the true frequency characteristics for the vocal-tract data of Japanese vowels, and how the frequency dependent characteristics including the lung impedance affect synthesized waveforms.
