Chirp Z-Transform (CZT)
=======================

[![PyPI version](https://badge.fury.io/py/czt.svg)](https://badge.fury.io/py/czt)

From [Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chirp_Z-transform):

> The chirp Z-transform (CZT) is a generalization of the discrete Fourier transform (DFT). While the DFT samples the Z plane at uniformly-spaced points along the unit circle, the chirp Z-transform samples along spiral arcs in the Z-plane, corresponding to straight lines in the S plane. The DFT, real DFT, and zoom DFT can be calculated as special cases of the CZT.

Getting Started
---------------

You can install the CZT package using ``pip``:

   ```bash
   # to install the latest release (from PyPI)
   pip install czt

   # to install the latest version (from GitHub)
   git clone https://github.com/garrettj403/CZT.git
   cd CZT
   pip install -e .

   # to install dependencies for examples
   pip install -e .[examples]
   ```

Example
-------

Consider the following time-domain signal:

</p>

This is an exponentially decaying sine wave with some distortion from higher-order frequencies. We can convert this signal to the frequency-domain to investigate the frequency content using the Chirp Z-Transform (CZT):

</p>

Note that the CZT also allows us to calculate the frequency response over an arbitrary frequency range:

</p>

We can see that the signal has frequency components at 1 kHz, 2.5 kHz and 3.5 kHz. To remove the distortion and isolate the 1 kHz signal, we can apply a simple window in the frequency-domain:

</p>

Finally, we can use the Inverse Chirp Z-Transform (ICZT) to transform back to the time domain:

<img src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/garrettj403/CZT/main/examples/results/windowed-time-domain.png" width="500">
</p>

As we can see, we were able to remove the higher-order frequencies that were distorting our 1 kHz signal.

You can find this example and others in the [``examples/``](https://github.com/garrettj403/CZT/blob/main/examples/)  directory.
