Exercise · ZW-SHORT-TIME-FOURIER-TRANSFORM-009 · ★★☆ Intermediate
A 1024-sample signal is analyzed with an STFT of window \( L=128 \) and hop \( R=64 \), with no padding. How many complete frames are obtained?
Choose one option.
A \( 15 \) B \( 16 \) C \( 17 \) D \( 14 \)

← Back to the question
Explanation The number of complete frames is \( \lfloor (1024-128)/64\rfloor+1=15 \). Dividing 1024 by 64 alone gives 16, but the last frame must fit entirely within the signal.
The short-time Fourier transform (STFT, \( X(\tau,\omega) \)) describes how the frequency content of a signal varies over time using a sliding window.
\[X(\tau,\omega)=\sum_{n} x[n]\,w[n-\tau]\,e^{-j\omega n}\]
