scipy.signal.windows.kaiser_bessel_derived

scipy.signal.windows.kaiser_bessel_derived(M, beta, *, sym=True)

Return a Kaiser-Bessel derived window.

Parameters

Mint

Number of points in the output window. If zero or less, an empty array is returned. Note that this window is only defined for an even number of points.

betafloat

Kaiser window shape parameter.

symbool, optional

This parameter only exists to comply with the interface offered by the other window functions and to be callable by get_window. When True (default), generates a symmetric window, for use in filter design.

Returns

wndarray

The window, normalized to fulfil the Princen-Bradley condition.

Notes

It is designed to be suitable for use with the modified discrete cosine transform (MDCT) and is mainly used in audio signal processing and audio coding.

New in version 1.9.0.

Examples

Plot the Kaiser-Bessel derived window based on the wikipedia reference [2]:

>>> from scipy import signal
>>> import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
>>> fig, ax = plt.subplots()
>>> N = 50
>>> for alpha in [0.64, 2.55, 7.64, 31.83]:
...     ax.plot(signal.windows.kaiser_bessel_derived(2*N, np.pi*alpha),
...             label=f"{alpha=}")
>>> ax.grid(True)
>>> ax.set_title("Kaiser-Bessel derived window")
>>> ax.set_ylabel("Amplitude")
>>> ax.set_xlabel("Sample")
>>> ax.set_xticks([0, N, 2*N-1])
>>> ax.set_xticklabels(["0", "N", "2N+1"])  
>>> ax.set_yticks([0.0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.707, 0.8, 1.0])
>>> fig.legend(loc="center")
>>> fig.tight_layout()
>>> fig.show()
