Transforms
Fourier, chirp Z, DCT, Hilbert, cepstrum, Walsh-Hadamard
Signal Processing Toolbox™ provides functions that let you compute widely used forward and inverse transforms, including the fast Fourier transform (FFT), the discrete cosine transform (DCT), and the Walsh-Hadamard transform. Extract signal envelopes and estimate instantaneous frequencies using the analytic signal. Analyze signals in the time-frequency domain. Investigate magnitude-phase relationships, estimate fundamental frequencies, and detect spectral periodicity using the cepstrum. Compute discrete Fourier transforms using the second-order Goertzel algorithm.
