Re: Filtering in roughness and waviness profile
Thank you Yeti,
in the Fourier domain (FFT, filtering, inverse FFT) what kind of filtering is used? There should be two
different filters used, one highpass filter for the roughness and a lowpass filter for the waviness,
which seperates the profiles. There are several possible filters for this and I need to know which one is
used in Gwyddion, to be able to compare the waviness and roughness parameters with parameters calculated
with another program for Laser Scanning Microscope Measurements.
Regards,
Lena

No, the high/low separation is done directly in the Fourier domain (i.e.
FFT, filtering, and inverse FFT). I am not an expert at norms I recall there are several possible separation methods.

"fs" always infinity and "ff" is always zero. I.e. anything above "fc"
goes to roughness, anything below goes to waviness.
