Compute the peak frequency of a Fourier-domain patch.

The peak frequency is the frequency bin with maximum spectral power within the selected frequency range. This is the global maximum, not a search for multiple local peaks. Ties select the first bin in coordinate order. The input patch must already be transformed with Patch.dft or Patch.stft.

Parameters

Parameter Description
dim Frequency dimension over which to compute the descriptor. This can be
either the original dimension name, such as "time", or the Fourier
dimension name, such as "ft_time". If omitted, a single Fourier
dimension is inferred.
fmin Optional lower frequency bound.
fmax Optional upper frequency bound.
spectral_format Representation of the spectral data. "auto" uses DASCore DFT/STFT
metadata when available. Other options are "fft" for complex Fourier
coefficients, "amplitude" for amplitude spectra, "power" for
power spectra, and "density" for power spectral densities.
negative_frequencies How to handle negative frequency bins. "auto" drops negative bins
when power is symmetric and raises otherwise, folding a verified
negative Nyquist bin to positive frequency without changing its
power. "drop" always uses
non-negative frequencies, "raise" rejects spectra with negative bins, and
"keep" includes them in the calculation.

Returns

PatchType Patch containing the frequency corresponding to the maximum spectral power.

Methods

Name Description
check Refuse a patch which does not carry what the operation needs.
describe Return the frequency of the largest power.
get_metadata Return the reduced metadata, and the bins and format to read.
model_copy Copy the model, dropping cached values the update invalidates.
new Create new instance with some attributed updated.
numpy_kernel Return the descriptor of the power in the bins kept.
spectral_peak_frequency Compute the peak frequency of a Fourier-domain patch.
reconcile Return metadata or a patch holding the final data; default as is.
result_dtype Return the dtype describe returns for power of dtype power.
run Run the operation: check, get_metadata, kernel, reconcile, record.
units Return the output’s data units: the frequencies’ by default.
