time integration via frequency domain

Hey!
I have been trying to get this integration by fft and dividing by 2*pi*f*i working but the amplitude is wrong all the time. Basically my code is the same as in this example: http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/17611-how-to-convert-a-accelerometer-data-to-displacements
So
function int_time_data = integrate(data,dt)
N1 = length(data);
N = 2^nextpow2(N1);
if N > N1
data(N1+1:N) = 0; % pad array with 0's
end
df = 1 / (N*dt); % frequency increment
Nyq = 1 / (2*dt); % Nyquist frequency
freq_data = (fftshift(fft(data)));
int_freq_data = zeros(size(freq_data));
f = -Nyq:df:Nyq-df;
for i = 1 : N
if f(i) ~= 0
int_freq_data(i) = freq_data(i)/(2*pi*f(i)*sqrt(-1));
else
int_freq_data(i) = 0;
end
end
int_time_data = ifft(ifftshift((int_freq_data)));
int_time_data = int_time_data(1:N1);
end
dt = 0.01; % seconds per sample
N = 512; % number of samples
t = 0 : dt : (N-1)*dt; % in seconds
wave_freq = 17.1; % in Hertz
data = sin(2*pi*wave_freq*t);
integrated_time_data = integrate(data,dt);
integrated_time_data_analytical = -1/(2*pi*wave_freq)*cos(2*pi*wave_freq*t);
plot(t,integrated_time_data);
hold on;
plot(t,integrated_time_data_analytical,'-r');
But this produces wrong results. What is wrong?

In this code the detrendization via high pass filtering is missing.

You did not say what was wrong about the amplitude. I did not run that code, but see if changing the freq_data line to:
freq_data = (fftshift(fft(data)/length(data)));
solves the problem.

That may be required, since according to the ifft documentation, it also normalizes by dividing the computed ifft by the length of the argument.
The original code works well regarding that line.

Thanks for the hint. It didn't solve the problem totally. When dividing by the length in fft I assume I should multiply by the length after the ifft? Otherwise the amplitude is far too small.
Now after the multiplication I get the following result which is attached

Hekseli,
You sometimes need to perform a high pass filter on your data when you convert it from acceleration to position. That should get rid of any low frequency drift you see in your results.
