     *        when a peak is present. An average of the input signal
     *        is calculated (through a single-pole autoregressive
     *        filter) and when the value of the input signal goes

     *        look_ahead samples starting at the point where the
     *        threshold was crossed upwards.
     * \param look_ahead The look-ahead value is used when the
     *        threshold is crossed upwards to locate the peak within
     *        this range.
     * \param alpha One minus the pole of a single-pole
     *        autoregressive filter that evaluates the average of
     *        the input signal.
