Filtering Frequency Domain Noise
Introduction
This application filters out certain frequencies from the frequency domain representation of an experimental data set.
Experimental Data
This data table contains 1024 experimental data points, assigned to the variable 'data'.
From the following plot, there appears to be an underlying trend in the data.
Frequency Domain Representation
If the data is examined in the frequency domain, the resulting power spectrum shows two dominant frequencies, as well as many low power frequencies.
Filtering Noise in the Frequency Domain
Frequencies below a specific threshold can be removed with a custom filter. The Explore command can be used to show how the changing the frequency option of the low pass filter changes the resulting filtered signal.
Comparison of Original and Filtered Data Set
By comparing the original signal plot with the filtered data, the underlying trend is more clearly visible.
