TWO IMPORTANT ISSUES FOR FFT SPECTROMETERS June 28, 2003 Carl Heiles ABSTRACT We discuss two important issues for power spectra derived from FFTing a time series. These are weighting, which eliminates spectral leakage, and \overlapping the chunks", which eliminates the nonessential increased variance that results from dividing the time series into chunks. ... We have M consecutive chunks of N-point time series, so that we have a continuous time series of length NM with no gaps. ...
