decimate

Decrease sample rate


Description

Downsample a signal by an integer factor.

Usage

decimate(x, q, n = ifelse(ftype == "iir", 8, 30), ftype = "iir")

Arguments

x

input data, specified as a numeric vector or matrix. In case of a vector it represents a single signal; in case of a matrix each column is a signal.

q

decimation factor, specified as a positive integer.

n

Order of the filter used prior to the downsampling, specified as a positive integer. Default: 8 if ftype equals "iir"; 30 of ftype equals "fir".

ftype

filter type; either "fir", specifying a FIR filter of length n designed with the function fir1, or "iir" (default), specifying an IIR Chebyshev filter of order 8 using the function cheby1.

Value

downsampled signal, returned as a vector or matrix.
