ABSTRACT:
A signal processing technique allows accurate interpolation between points of a sampled frequency domain function. A time-based sampling process samples a time waveform of duration T having a sub time interval T'. A signal processor applies a discrete Fourier transform over a time period T to transform the sampled data from the time domain to the frequency domain. The sampled frequency domain data is convolved with one or more convolution kernels to yield a continuous line shape. The result of this convolution permits the spectral composition at arbitrary frequencies to be determined. The disclosed frequency domain interpolation process is characterized by preservation of data in the T' interval of the time domain with an arbitrary but specified degree of accuracy.
