Re: FIR filters




Good question. I remember that I originally put it in there to deal with  what I thought was an aliasing problem with the Gaussian windows as  they are not band-limited. One could window the window with a finite  window, I suppose :roll: To the extent that the impulse response being  analyzed is band limited there should not be significant aliasing but  there could be with test signals, such as an ideal impulse.


Oversampling allows for time steps of less than 1 (input) sample, which  makes for a prettier, though not more meaningful, display when expanding  the time scale at high frequencies. On occasion I see what I think are  artifacts at the high end of the range even with oversampling. There's  something going on there I don't understand. Lot's of subtleties in this  business...


Best,
