Name

filt_tophath - top-hat high-pass Fourier filter (truncation of a Fourier series)

Usage

output = filt_tophath(image, freq, pad)

Input

image

input image (can be either real or Fourier)

freq

pass-band frequency

pad

logical flag specifying whether before filtering the image should be padded with zeroes in real space to twice the size (this helps avoiding aliasing artifacts). (Default pad = False).

• All frequencies are in absolute frequency units `f_a` and their valid range is [0:0.5].

Output

output

filtered image. Output image is real when input image is real or Fourier when input image is Fourier

Method

Fourier transform of the input image is set to zero for spatial frequencies larger than freq.
