Topics

Get Started with Window Designer

Use the Window Designer app to design and analyze spectral windows.

Windows

Learn about spectral windows and how to analyze them using toolbox functions.

Generalized Cosine Windows

Blackman, flat top, Hamming, Hann, and rectangular windows are all special cases of the generalized cosine window.

Kaiser Window

The Kaiser window is designed to maximize the ratio of mainlobe energy to sidelobe energy.

Chebyshev Window

The Chebyshev window minimizes the mainlobe width for a particular sidelobe level and exhibits equiripple sidelobe behavior.
