Recalculate

See Recalculating Analysis Results.

Input1

Specifies the first input signal. See Specifying Your Input Data.

Input2

Specifies the second input signal. If you would like to calculate auto-correlation, this should be the same as the first input signal. See Specifying Your Input Data.

Sampling Interval

Specifies the sampling frequency. The default is <auto>, which corresponds to an automatically-calculated interval.

Options

Specifies the computation options.

Type
Specifies whether to compute a linear correlation or a circular correlation.
  • Linear: This is suitable for signals whose data points outside the input range can be viewed as zeros.
  • Circular: This is best suited for signals that repeat periodically.
Normalize
Specifies whether the result should be normalized to [0, 1].
Output

Specifies the output. See Output Results.
