the last one if `axis` is not specified. The length of the transformed axis is `n`, or, if `n` is not given, ``2*(m-1)`` where ``m`` is the length of the transformed axis of the input. To get an odd number of output points, `n` must be specified. Raises ------ IndexError If `axis` is larger than the last axis of `a`. See also -------- rfft : Compute the one-dimensional FFT for real input. ihfft : The inverse of `hfft`. Notes ----- `hfft`/`ihfft` are a pair analogous to `rfft`/`irfft`, but for the opposite case: here the signal has Hermitian symmetry in the time domain and is real in the frequency domain. So here it's `hfft` for which you must supply the length of the result if it is to be odd: ``ihfft(hfft(a), len(a)) == a``, within numerical accuracy. Examples -------- >>> signal = np.array([1, 2, 3, 4, 3, 2]) >>> np.fft.fft(signal) array([ 15.+0.j, -4.+0.j, 0.+0.j, -1.-0.j, 0.+0.j, -4.+0.j]) >>> np.fft.hfft(signal[:4]) # Input first half of signal array([ 15., -4., 0., -1., 0., -4.]) >>> np.fft.hfft(signal, 6) # Input entire signal and truncate array([ 15., -4., 0., -1., 0., -4.]) >>> signal = np.array([[1, 1.j], [-1.j, 2]]) >>> np.conj(signal.T) - signal # check Hermitian symmetry array([[ 0.-0.j, 0.+0.j], [ 0.+0.j, 0.-0.j]]) >>> freq_spectrum = np.fft.hfft(signal) >>> freq_spectrum array([[ 1., 1.], [ 2., -2.]]) TŠ
