The vehicle safety tools' Filter menu provides curve filtering functions, including Butterworth, FIR, and a new SAE 1995 that are not available to regular HyperGraph 2D users. Filtering requires the time unit of seconds. You must convert your data to seconds before applying a filter.
The Filter menu contains the following plot macros:
Option |
Description |
---|---|
Batch General |
HyperGraph 2D filter. Low pass, ideal filter. |
Batch Mirror |
HyperGraph 2D filter. Mirrors data before filtering to smooth start and end points of filtered curve. |
NHTSA Butterworth |
Filters data forward and backward using a second order Butterworth algorithm. |
NHTSA FIR100 |
Performs 100 Hz finite impulse response filtering of a digitized time series. |
FreqDomainDiff |
Differentiates the given curve (time based) in the frequency domain. |
IR |
Impulse response filter function. |
Resample |
Resamples the given input curve to the specified data frequency. |
SAE General |
Displays secondary menus SAE (J211, Mar1995) and SAE (hg). |
SAE (J211, Mar1995) |
Complies with March 1995 SAE-J211 guidelines for 60 and 180 CFC filtering. |
No Padding |
Does not add any additional time to the x axis. Filters the data forward, backward, forward and backward, or backward and forward. |
Zero Padding |
Pads data with constraints to improve filtered data appearance at start and end points. Adds additional time to the x-axis at the zero value for y. Filters the data forward, backward, forward and backward, or backward and forward. |
Mirror Padding |
Mirrors data before filtering to improve filtered data appearance at start and end points. Filters the data forward, backward, forward and backward, or backward and forward. |
ISO6487 Padding |
Mirrors data before filtering according to the ISO 6487 standard. |
SAE (hg) |
HyperGraph 2D generic SAE filters. Filters include SAE60, SAE180, SAE600, SAE1000, SAE General, SAE Mirror. |
