Short Burst Suppression Filter

The Short Burst Suppression Filter attempts to suppress short pulses from an incoming spectra stream:

The Short Burst Suppression Filter attempts to suppress short pulses from an incoming spectra stream. It does this by dampening those samples where a pulse matching the specified parameters is detected:

Short Burst Suppression Filter Settings

Only the specified frequency range is monitored, and only peaks above the specified power level can trigger the suppression. "Percent in Range" defines the ratio how often and/or long the peaks must appear (note: a value of 1.0 means 100%). If such a peak is detected, a power offset is applied to that sample and a time erosion filter is applied to soften the remaining data.

Here an example of a stream with and without the Short Burst Suppression Filter applied:

Short Burst Suppression Filter Example

The 1ms pulses are suppressed while the lower-power 20ms pulses remain visible.
