Abstract

Flat-top windows intended to reduce spectrum amplitude measurement error in discrete harmonic analysis are considered. A new family of flat-top windows, which provide the minimum level of the highest spectrum sidelobe and low calculation complexity is proposed. Mathematical representation of the new windows and a method of optimization of their parameters, which rely on authors’ earlier works are described. A number of flat-top windows of orders 1…6 and sidelobe falloff rates of 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, and 48 decibels per octave are synthesized, tables of their parameters are provided, and their characteristics are analyzed. An alternative technique to reduce the spectrum amplitude measurement error is proposed.
