BlackmanHarrisWindow

BlackmanHarrisWindow[x]

represents a BlackmanHarris window function of x.

Details

  • BlackmanHarrisWindow is a window function typically used in signal processing applications where data needs to be processed in short segments.
  • Window functions have a smoothing effect by gradually tapering data values to zero at the ends of each segment.
  • BlackmanHarrisWindow[x] is equal to  (48829 cos(2 pi x)+14128 cos(4 pi x)+1168 cos(6 pi x)+35875)/(100000) -1/2<=x<=1/2; 0 TemplateBox[{x}, Abs]>1/2; .
  • BlackmanHarrisWindow automatically threads over lists.
