The following figure presents an example of spectral analysis by applying a win-
dow function to a time-domain waveform.
Using the window function, discontinuous points on the time-domain waveform
are eliminated, so the wave shape approaches a line spectrum.
The following figure shows the time-domain waveform of the window function
and its spectrum.
Each spectrum shows a large peak at a low frequency, and many smaller peaks
at higher frequencies. The largest peak is called the main lobe, and the smaller
peaks are the side lobes.
The most accurate results of the FFT function are obtained when the width of the
main lobe and the amplitude of the side lobes are minimized, although both con-
ditions cannot be satisfied at the same time.
Therefore, a window function having a wide main lobe is used when amplitude
values are important, while a window function having a small main lobe is used
to observe fine spectral details, and a window function having small side lobe
amplitudes is used to exclude the effects of the surrounding spectrum.
However, because the main lobe width is proportional to the width (1/W) of the
window, increasing the number of analysis points increases the frequency reso-
lution.
