- scipy.signal.csd(x, y, fs=1.0, window='hann', nperseg=None, noverlap=None, nfft=None, detrend='constant', return_onesided=True, scaling='density', axis=-1, average='mean')[source]#
- Estimate the cross power spectral density, Pxy, using Welch’s method. - Parameters:
- xarray_like
- Time series of measurement values 
- yarray_like
- Time series of measurement values 
- fsfloat, optional
- Sampling frequency of the x and y time series. Defaults to 1.0. 
- windowstr or tuple or array_like, optional
- Desired window to use. If window is a string or tuple, it is passed to - get_windowto generate the window values, which are DFT-even by default. See- get_windowfor a list of windows and required parameters. If window is array_like it will be used directly as the window and its length must be nperseg. Defaults to a Hann window.
- npersegint, optional
- Length of each segment. Defaults to None, but if window is str or tuple, is set to 256, and if window is array_like, is set to the length of the window. 
- noverlap: int, optional
- Number of points to overlap between segments. If None, - noverlap = nperseg // 2. Defaults to None.
- nfftint, optional
- Length of the FFT used, if a zero padded FFT is desired. If None, the FFT length is nperseg. Defaults to None. 
- detrendstr or function or False, optional
- Specifies how to detrend each segment. If - detrendis a string, it is passed as the type argument to the- detrendfunction. If it is a function, it takes a segment and returns a detrended segment. If- detrendis False, no detrending is done. Defaults to ‘constant’.
- return_onesidedbool, optional
- If True, return a one-sided spectrum for real data. If False return a two-sided spectrum. Defaults to True, but for complex data, a two-sided spectrum is always returned. 
- scaling{ ‘density’, ‘spectrum’ }, optional
- Selects between computing the cross spectral density (‘density’) where Pxy has units of V**2/Hz and computing the cross spectrum (‘spectrum’) where Pxy has units of V**2, if x and y are measured in V and fs is measured in Hz. Defaults to ‘density’ 
- axisint, optional
- Axis along which the CSD is computed for both inputs; the default is over the last axis (i.e. - axis=-1).
- average{ ‘mean’, ‘median’ }, optional
- Method to use when averaging periodograms. If the spectrum is complex, the average is computed separately for the real and imaginary parts. Defaults to ‘mean’. - Added in version 1.2.0. 
 
- Returns:
- fndarray
- Array of sample frequencies. 
- Pxyndarray
- Cross spectral density or cross power spectrum of x,y. 
 
 - See also - periodogram
- Simple, optionally modified periodogram 
- lombscargle
- Lomb-Scargle periodogram for unevenly sampled data 
- welch
- Power spectral density by Welch’s method. [Equivalent to csd(x,x)] 
- coherence
- Magnitude squared coherence by Welch’s method. 
 - Notes - By convention, Pxy is computed with the conjugate FFT of X multiplied by the FFT of Y. - If the input series differ in length, the shorter series will be zero-padded to match. - An appropriate amount of overlap will depend on the choice of window and on your requirements. For the default Hann window an overlap of 50% is a reasonable trade off between accurately estimating the signal power, while not over counting any of the data. Narrower windows may require a larger overlap. - Consult the Spectral Analysis section of the SciPy User Guide for a discussion of the scalings of a spectral density and an (amplitude) spectrum. - Added in version 0.16.0. - References [1]- P.
