Chris@82 78 <h4 class="subsection">4.3.4 Real-data DFT Array Format</h4>
Chris@82 79 <a name="index-r2c_002fc2r-multi_002ddimensional-array-format-1"></a>
Chris@82 80
Chris@82 81 <p>The output of a DFT of real data (r2c) contains symmetries that, in
Chris@82 82 principle, make half of the outputs redundant (see <a href="What-FFTW-Really-Computes.html#What-FFTW-Really-Computes">What FFTW Really Computes</a>). (Similarly for the input of an inverse c2r transform.) In
Chris@82 83 practice, it is not possible to entirely realize these savings in an
Chris@82 84 efficient and understandable format that generalizes to
Chris@82 85 multi-dimensional transforms. Instead, the output of the r2c
Chris@82 86 transforms is <em>slightly</em> over half of the output of the
Chris@82 87 corresponding complex transform. We do not &ldquo;pack&rdquo; the data in any
Chris@82 88 way, but store it as an ordinary array of <code>fftw_complex</code> values.
Chris@82 89 In fact, this data is simply a subsection of what would be the array in
Chris@82 90 the corresponding complex transform.
Chris@82 91 </p>
Chris@82 92 <p>Specifically, for a real transform of <em>d</em> (= <code>rank</code>)
Chris@82 93 dimensions n<sub>0</sub>&nbsp;&times;&nbsp;n<sub>1</sub>&nbsp;&times;&nbsp;n<sub>2</sub>&nbsp;&times;&nbsp;&hellip;&nbsp;&times;&nbsp;n<sub>d-1</sub>
Chris@82 94 , the complex data is an n<sub>0</sub>&nbsp;&times;&nbsp;n<sub>1</sub>&nbsp;&times;&nbsp;n<sub>2</sub>&nbsp;&times;&nbsp;&hellip;&nbsp;&times;&nbsp;(n<sub>d-1</sub>/2 + 1)
Chris@82 95 array of
Chris@82 96 <code>fftw_complex</code> values in row-major order (with the division rounded
Chris@82 97 down). That is, we only store the <em>lower</em> half (non-negative
Chris@82 98 frequencies), plus one element, of the last dimension of the data from
Chris@82 99 the ordinary complex transform. (We could have instead taken half of
Chris@82 100 any other dimension, but implementation turns out to be simpler if the
Chris@82 101 last, contiguous, dimension is used.)
Chris@82 102 </p>
Chris@82 103 <a name="index-out_002dof_002dplace-1"></a>
Chris@82 104 <p>For an out-of-place transform, the real data is simply an array with
Chris@82 105 physical dimensions n<sub>0</sub>&nbsp;&times;&nbsp;n<sub>1</sub>&nbsp;&times;&nbsp;n<sub>2</sub>&nbsp;&times;&nbsp;&hellip;&nbsp;&times;&nbsp;n<sub>d-1</sub>
Chris@82 106 in row-major order.
Chris@82 107 </p>
Chris@82 108 <a name="index-in_002dplace-4"></a>
Chris@82 109 <a name="index-padding-3"></a>
Chris@82 110 <p>For an in-place transform, some complications arise since the complex data
Chris@82 111 is slightly larger than the real data. In this case, the final
Chris@82 112 dimension of the real data must be <em>padded</em> with extra values to
Chris@82 113 accommodate the size of the complex data&mdash;two extra if the last
Chris@82 114 dimension is even and one if it is odd. That is, the last dimension of
Chris@82 115 the real data must physically contain
Chris@82 116 2 * (n<sub>d-1</sub>/2+1)
Chris@82 117 <code>double</code> values (exactly enough to hold the complex data). This
Chris@82 118 physical array size does not, however, change the <em>logical</em> array
Chris@82 119 size&mdash;only
Chris@82 120 n<sub>d-1</sub>
Chris@82 121 values are actually stored in the last dimension, and
Chris@82 122 n<sub>d-1</sub>
Chris@82 123 is the last dimension passed to the planner.
