10 Generate a Gaussian window on the stdout in binary shorts or floats for a
|
|
tomwalters@0
|
11 given variance over a given range of standard deviations.

13 .SH OPTIONS
|
|

|
14
|
|
tomwalters@0
|
15 1. variance, range
|
|
tomwalters@0
|
16
|
|
tomwalters@0
|
17 The variance of the Gaussian window and its ordinal range in standard
|
|
tomwalters@0
|
18 deviations either side of the mode.
|
|
tomwalters@0
|
19 The size of the window in samples is given by:
|
|
tomwalters@0
|
20
|
|
tomwalters@0
|
21 .nf
|
|
tomwalters@0
|
22 [ 2 * range * sqrt( variance ) ] samples + 1 sample
|
|
tomwalters@0
|
23 .fi
|
|
tomwalters@0
|
24
|
|
tomwalters@0
|
25 The variance can be given with time units (ms or s) or samples (no
|
|
tomwalters@0
|
26 units). Time units are converted to samples using the given `samplerate'
|
|
tomwalters@0
|
27 option.
|

|
|

|
29 2. normalize
|
|
tomwalters@0
|
30
|
|
tomwalters@0
|
31 If "normalize=off" then the window has unit amplitude at the mode.
|
|
tomwalters@0
|
32 If "normalize=on" then the window is scaled for unit area.
|
|
tomwalters@0
|
33
|
|
tomwalters@0
|
34 3. scale
|
|
tomwalters@0
|
35
|
|
tomwalters@0
|
36 A scale factor for the output.
|
|
tomwalters@0
|
37
|
|
tomwalters@0
|
38 4. type
|
|
tomwalters@0
|
39
|
|
tomwalters@0
|
40 Output datatype ("type=short" or "type=float").
