# this is # ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- # # Procedures in the Fourier domain # -------------------------------- Options and parameters in common for procedures in the Fourier domain: fpow2 use power of two for number of coefficients fdiv=d use integer multiple of d for number of coefficients fpad=f padding factor tshift=d delay source correction filter wavelet by d (in seconds) in order to expose acausal components These options define the number of samples N used for the FFT (Fast Fourier Transform). This number N should be larger than the number of samples M in the original input time series to avoid wrap-around. If fpow2 is set, N will be the next power of 2 larger than M*f. Else if fdiv is set, N will be the next integer multiple of d larger than M*f. The derived correction filter in some cases can contain acausal components. This means that the impulse response is non-zero for negative time values. Since by definition, the impulse response is output for the time interval of the input data, these acausal components can remain unnoticed. The option tshift can be used to shift the impulse response as obtained by inverse FFT in order to expose acausal components. # ----- END OF stfinvfourier_description_usage.txt -----
