What does short-time Fourier transform do?

The short-time Fourier transform (STFT) is used to analyze how the frequency content of a nonstationary signal changes over time. The magnitude squared of the STFT is known as the spectrogram time-frequency representation of the signal.

What is the difference between FFT and STFT?

FFT has a resolution of 2048 lines, Blackman window, and 50% overlap and STFT also has Block size 2048, FFT size 16K, Blackman window used, and 50% overlap. As we can see, STFT performs better with the same block size (but more calculated lines). We improved frequency resolution for the same amount of scooped data.

What is the advantage of short-time Fourier transform?

The STFT does have an advantage when it comes to rendering powers. It is possible to integrate a 3D wavelet spectrum in order to get power just as it is possible to integrate the STFT and extract power information from the volume under the surface.

What is FFT length in STFT?

512 (default) | positive integer. FFT length, specified as a positive integer. This property determines the length of the STFT output (number of rows).
