jax.scipy.signal.stft(x, fs=1.0, window='hann', nperseg=256, noverlap=None, nfft=None, detrend=False, return_onesided=True, boundary='zeros', padded=True, axis=-1)[source]#

Compute the Short Time Fourier Transform (legacy function).

LAX-backend implementation of scipy.signal._spectral_py.stft().

Original docstring below.

STFTs can be used as a way of quantifying the change of a nonstationary signal’s frequency and phase content over time.

Parameters:
  • x (array_like) – Time series of measurement values

  • fs (float, optional) – Sampling frequency of the x time series. Defaults to 1.0.

  • window (str or tuple or array_like, optional) – Desired window to use. If window is a string or tuple, it is passed to get_window to generate the window values, which are DFT-even by default. See get_window for a list of windows and required parameters. If window is array_like it will be used directly as the window and its length must be nperseg. Defaults to a Hann window.

  • nperseg (int, optional) – Length of each segment. Defaults to 256.

  • noverlap (int, optional) – Number of points to overlap between segments. If None, noverlap = nperseg // 2. Defaults to None. When specified, the COLA constraint must be met (see Notes below).

  • nfft (int, optional) – Length of the FFT used, if a zero padded FFT is desired. If None, the FFT length is nperseg. Defaults to None.

  • detrend (str or function or False, optional) – Specifies how to detrend each segment. If detrend is a string, it is passed as the type argument to the detrend function. If it is a function, it takes a segment and returns a detrended segment. If detrend is False, no detrending is done. Defaults to False.

  • return_onesided (bool, optional) – If True, return a one-sided spectrum for real data. If False return a two-sided spectrum. Defaults to True, but for complex data, a two-sided spectrum is always returned.

  • boundary (str or None, optional) – Specifies whether the input signal is extended at both ends, and how to generate the new values, in order to center the first windowed segment on the first input point. This has the benefit of enabling reconstruction of the first input point when the employed window function starts at zero. Valid options are ['even', 'odd', 'constant', 'zeros', None]. Defaults to ‘zeros’, for zero padding extension. I.e. [1, 2, 3, 4] is extended to [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 0] for nperseg=3.

  • padded (bool, optional) – Specifies whether the input signal is zero-padded at the end to make the signal fit exactly into an integer number of window segments, so that all of the signal is included in the output. Defaults to True. Padding occurs after boundary extension, if boundary is not None, and padded is True, as is the default.

  • axis (int, optional) – Axis along which the STFT is computed; the default is over the last axis (i.e. axis=-1).

Return type:

tuple[Array, Array, Array]

Returns:

  • f (ndarray) – Array of sample frequencies.

  • t (ndarray) – Array of segment times.

  • Zxx (ndarray) – STFT of x. By default, the last axis of Zxx corresponds to the segment times.
