Hann (Hanning) window

collapse all in page

Syntax

w = hann(L)
w = hann(L,sflag)
w = hann(___,typeName)

Description

w = hann(L) returns an L-point symmetric Hann window.

example

w = hann(L,sflag) returns a Hann window using the window sampling specified by sflag.

w = hann(___,typeName) specifies the option to return the window w with single or double precision.

Examples

Open Live Script

Create a 64-point Hann window. Display the result using wvtool.

L = 64;
wvtool(hann(L))

Figure Window Visualization Tool contains 2 axes objects and other objects of type uimenu, uitoolbar, uipanel. Axes object 1 with title Time domain, xlabel Samples, ylabel Amplitude contains an object of type line. Axes object 2 with title Frequency domain, xlabel Normalized Frequency (\times\pi rad/sample), ylabel Magnitude (dB) contains an object of type line.

Input Arguments

collapse all

Window length, specified as a positive integer.

Note

If you specify L as noninteger, the function rounds it to the nearest integer value.

Data Types: single | double | int8 | int16 | int32 | int64 | uint8 | uint16 | uint32 | uint64

Window sampling method, specified as:

  • "symmetric" — Use this option when using windows for filter design.

  • "periodic" — This option is useful for spectral analysis because it enables a windowed signal to have the perfect periodic extension implicit in the discrete Fourier transform. When 'periodic' is specified, the function computes a window of length L + 1 and returns the first L points.

Data Types: char | string

Since R2024b

Output data type (class), specified as one of these:

  • "double" — Use this option to return a double-precision output w.

  • "single" — Use this option to return a single-precision output w.

Data Types: char | string

Output Arguments

collapse all

Hann window, returned as a column vector.

Algorithms

The following equation generates the coefficients of a Hann window:

w(n)=0.5(1−cos(2πnN)),0≤n≤N.

The window length L = N + 1.
