Looks like a great work.  It seems to fit into an Octave Forge package.
There's a couple of things that are needed.  First you need to have a
repository.  Do you have experience with mercurial or git?  Did you work
your package with some version control?  If so, we should import it.

Also, your code does not have any tests.  This is necessary to make sure
the code will continue work for a long time and is useful for others.
Can you write Octave tests?  Here's some examples:

  
http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/file/6a73d6e36647/scripts/signal/hamming.m#l70
  
http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/file/6a73d6e36647/scripts/signal/fftshift.m#l90
  
http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/file/6a73d6e36647/scripts/signal/freqz.m#l204

It's also great that you have a manual, even if only in spanish.  However,
everything must be built from source.  Do you have the source for the
manual?  You will also need to keep that under version control.
