Thanks for putting up that paper by Jacoby, where was it published?
Comments:
The Walsh synthesis is as additive as Fourier synthesis and not at all
subtractive. The canceling of harmonics results from the
multiplication in the time domain (remember that Walsh functions are
polynomials of Rademacher functions), which produces a convolution in
the frequency domain.
The Walsh coefficients you show are normalized to the largest
coefficient and not for constant amplitude (these are -Pi/2 and -2
respectively) and seem to be geared towards an inverting signal path.
You may want to add a remark about that so that people don't get
confused when they compare these coefficients with other sources.
Achim.
