✦ Synopsis


The limitation of the spectrum estimation based on the procedure using the fast Fourier transform (FFT) is that of frequency resolution [1]. This limitation is particularly prominent when analyzing short data records. In practice, short data records occur because many measured processes have time-varying spectra and are considered constant only for short intervals. The following non-harmonic Fourier analysis is available for analyzing short data records.

Let að f Þ and bð f Þ be Fourier coefficients which are given by
