Centering Waveform at Zero for FFT

I want to perform a FFT on a waveform that describes a Gaussian pulse in amplitude vs. time. I also want to have that pulse centered so that its maximum is at t = 0.
So far I have been using Amplitude and Phase Spectrum.vi and FFT Spectrum (Mag-Phase).vi. The problem with the former is that it only takes a 1D array of Y values, not another array for time values. The problem with FFT Spectrum (Mag-Phase).vi is that I don't know how to use the t0 component (it requires a timestamp?).
I have tried "wrapping" the pulse around, i.e. cutting the first half of the pulse and concatenating it to the end but this doesn't have the FFT I want (which would have constant phase in frequency domain).
A bit about my background: I'm an undergrad volunteering in an ultrafast spectroscopy lab, so it's very possible I'm ignoring something very elementary here about FFT, which I still treat as something of a black box, so any help in that topic would be welcome.

Hello,
In the Amplitude and Phase Spectrum vi, the time values are accounted for by wiring the dt input of the function. This assumes that you have a constant dt between each point and the very first point is treated as t=0. The other function behaves similarly except that you are using a waveform. A waveform consists of 1) Amplitude values, 2) t0 (timestamp - for you, the timestamp can just be an arbitrary constant value) 3) dt (again, this make it a constant dt between all the points) 4) Attributes. Overall, you should get similar results from either of these. In terms of your data, do they have a constant time interval between points or not?

  • Remove Leading zeros for Material in Transformation

    Hi Experts,
    I'm using DTP first time. I don't have much exp on DTP & Transformations.
    I'm creating infocube with some objects. I want to remove leading zeros for zmaterial.
    In 3.x writen update routines as fallows:
    data: zmat(18) type c.
    zmat = COMM_STRUCTURE-/BIC/ZMAT.
    shift zmat left deleting leading '0'.
    result value of the routine
      RESULT = zmat.
    I'm confusing in Transfermation where to write this routines.
    I'm writing in Transformation as fallows:
    data: zmat(18) type c.
    zmat = SOURCE_FIELDS-/BIC/ZMAT.
    shift zmat left deleting leading '0'.
    RESULT = zmat.
    But it's getting remove zero's.
    Anybody suggest on this.
    Siri

    Dear Sir,
    No confusion at all.
    Just double click on the Target Infoobjct i,e Material object in Transformation, you will see a wizard popping up.
    There you will see a option called "RULE TYPE" and the default value will be "Direct Assignment". In the same check box click on the drop down icon and select "Routine".
    The moment you select the routine option, it will open up ABAP workspace where in you can write your routine and get the desired result.
    Hope it helps.

  • Target costs is showing as ZERO for one material in KKBC_ORD

    Hi,
    When i execute KKBC_ORD,It is showing the Total Target Costs as ZERO for one material.Cost estimate was already executed for that material.I couldnot find out the problem for this issue.
    Kindly help me to find why it is giving the ZERO value for this Total Target Costs in KKBC_ORD transaction.
    It would be a great help if any one helps me...
    Thanks
    Supriya

    Dear,
    Have you done the GR final DEV for order?
    You need to do the variance calculation in KKS2, then when you save the variance, the target cost is calculated.
    Target cost appear after GR. I think you are checking in CO03GotoCost--Analyasis.
    Go to t.code OKEV.Select Controlling Area XXX  and create Plan / Target version
    Go to transaction OKV6 these settings control what values are used to update the target costs.
    Target Costs=Actual Quantitiy X the Standard Cost Estimate Price..

  • Carrying forward accounts with value as '0' (zero) for consolidation

    Hi,
    I have a query regarding carrying forward accounts with value as '0' (zero) for consolidation. Actually when there is any account having zero value then on calculating contribution the value is carried only to Parent Currency Total dimension. After proportion level the value for that account becomes null. Can anyone suggest if there is a way where i can carry the value 'zero' till value dimension "Contribution Total".
    Thanks in advance

    Hi,
    couldn't you do a rule that copies from PCT to proportion level ( either this level or one above that lets you have rule input)

  • Leading zeros for zip codes in Numbers

    I couldn't find an answer for this question but finally figured it out so wanted to share. Here's how I got the zeros to show in my zip code column:
    You can make a custom cell format from the cells palette. You have to hide the separator and add a digit using the Integers bubble. Then choose show zeros for unused digits.
    Then apply this format to the entire zip code column in your doc.

    I was having the same problem. You pointed me in the right direction but in 09 the prompts are slightly different.. Hilight the column. In the cell inspector, cell format, choose NUMERICAL SYSTEM and set the number of places to five.
    It should now look right but before you save it, create a new column and format it as above into TEXT. Then copy the one you've fixed, and paste it into the new text column. This should save fine as cvs in any event, as well as numbers.

  • Removal of leading zeros for material no. in report

    hi
    my issue is that i have to remove leading zeros for material number when displaying in alv grid.iam getting output.but leading have to truncated automatically.
    eg: 000000000000000102
    the ouput should be 102.
    please do provide solution for this or any function module.thanks in advance.

    Hi Sanjana,
    while populating the internal table use the conversion exit available for MATNR. this will remove the leading zeros.
    oter possible way, declare the internaltable by referring the data element MATNR, i hope if you do this, it will delete the leading zeros automaticallt.
    or if you declare the internal table field as charecter type, use the ALPLA_CONVERSION_EXIT_INPUT ot OUTPUT function module to remove the leading zeros.
    Reward the points if it is helpful..

  • Suppress leading zeros for ALV column

    Hello,
    I have an ALV with a column mapped to a context attribute of type NUMC and would like to suppress the leading zeros being displayed.  My initial solution was to change the attribute to a char/string type and remove the zeros in my code, but then, the sort functionality no longer works correctly.  Any ideas if the ALV can use a 'hidden' field to do the sorting for a certain column... that way, I can display the number as a char/string without the zeros and when the user sorts the column, the ALV will use the hidden NUMC type field.
    Thanx for any directions...

    Hi,
    You can follow the following way which i implemnted for one of my application. Here i am setting this property for the context attrubute. May be this will work. But in ALV there is no separate method for this type of setting.
    **This method is used to display the Leading zeros for the Lot Number in Step-1

  • Delete leading zeros for material in mapping.

    Hi,
    If you will be getting alphanumeric codes, it would be best to use a UDF with a regex-expression.
    UDF Type:
    ContextType
    imports:
    java.util.regex; (if you are using PI 7.1 you must remove the semicolon)
    arguments:
    input1
    Here's the code (courtesy of Sun Developer Network):
            Pattern p = Pattern.compile("[^a-zA-Z]");
            Matcher m = p.matcher(input1[0]);
            StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer();
            boolean output = m.find();
            while(output) {
                m.appendReplacement(sb, "");
                output = m.find();
            m.appendTail(sb);
    result.addValue(input1[1]);
    Now to solve the leading zeroes, just add formatNumber: 0 after the UDF and it will work.
    Hope this helps,
