BohmanWindow

BohmanWindow[x]

represents a Bohman window function of x.

Details

  • BohmanWindow 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.
  • BohmanWindow[x] is equal to  (-sin(2 pi x)+2 pi x cos(2 pi x)+pi cos(2 pi x))/pi -1/2<=x<0; (sin(2 pi x)-2 pi x cos(2 pi x)+pi cos(2 pi x))/pi 0<=x<=1/2; 0 TemplateBox[{x}, Abs]>1/2; .
  • BohmanWindow automatically threads over lists.
