ripple is just a known artifactual component of a windowing operation. it's also known as the Gibbs phenomenon
http://matlab.izmiran.ru/help/toolbox/signal/filterd8.html i'm not referring to any equivalency between time/freq domain filtering On Wed, Jun 24, 2020 at 9:21 AM Corey K <corey...@gmail.com> wrote: > Not totally understanding you, unfortunately.
