Data Smoothing : RC Filtering And Exponential Averaging
What are RC Filtering and Exponential Averaging and how do they differ? The answer to the second part of the question is that they are the same process! If one…

Understanding filters is actually simpler than it may first seem. Creating a filter is another story; it’s like being able to drive a car without having to know the intricate…
These are two different techniques aimed at different objectives. First consider a simple sinewave that has been sampled close to the Nyquist frequency (sample rate/2).

Visually this looks very pointy. We will examine it using a filter based interpolation and a classical curve fitting procedure to obtain a better representation.
