damp_lorch

ReducedIntensity1D.damp_lorch(s_max=None, inplace=True, *args, **kwargs)

Damps the reduced intensity signal to reduce noise in the high s region by a factor of sin(s*delta) / (s*delta), where delta = pi / s_max. See [1].

Parameters:

• s_max (float) – The maximum s value to be used for transformation to PDF.

• inplace (bool) – If True (default), this signal is overwritten. Otherwise, returns a new signal.

• *args – Arguments to be passed to map().

• **kwargs – Keyword arguments to be passed to map().
