HilbertFilter

HilbertFilter[data,ωc]

applies a Hilbert filter with a cutoff frequency ωc to an array of data.

HilbertFilter[data,ωc,n]

uses a filter kernel of length n.

HilbertFilter[data,ωc,n,wfun]

applies a smoothing window wfun to the filter kernel.

Details and Options

  • HilbertFilter is a finite-impulse response (FIR) discrete-time filter typically used to obtain an approximation of data with a 90-degree phase shift.
  • The data can be any of the following:
  • listarbitrary-rank numerical array
    tseriestemporal data such as TimeSeries and TemporalData
    imagearbitrary Image or Image3D object
    audioan Audio or Sound object
  • Data smoothing with cutoff frequency ωc reduces the susceptibility of the evaluation to signal noise with the amount of smoothing dependent on the value of the cutoff frequency ωc.
  • The cutoff frequency ωc should be between 0 and . Smaller values of ωc result in greater smoothing.
  • When applied to images and multidimensional arrays, filtering is applied successively to each dimension, starting at level 1. HilbertFilter[data,{ωc1,ωc2,…}] uses the frequency ωci for the ^(th) dimension.
  • HilbertFilter[data,ωc] uses a filter kernel length and smoothing window suitable for the cutoff frequency ωc and the input data.
  • Typical smoothing windows wfun include:
  • BlackmanWindowsmoothing with a Blackman window
    DirichletWindowno smoothing
    HammingWindowsmoothing with a Hamming window
    {v1,v2,…}use a window with values vi
    fcreate a window by sampling f between and
  • The following options can be given:
  • Padding "Fixed"the padding value to use
    SampleRate Automaticsample rate assumed for the input
  • By default, SampleRate->1 is assumed for images as well as data. For a sampled sound object of sample rate of r, SampleRate->r is used.
  • With SampleRate->r, the cutoff frequency ωc should be between 0 and r×.
