I think I remember reading a little about how to design time-domain filters based on a Fourier Transform, but I couldn't glean much from the website's brief description.
I'm assuming that taking a Fourier Transform of the signal could reveal the frequencies of the high-frequency signals of vibrations and electronic noise. Using this information, one could then design a time-domain filter to extract the "real" acceleration signal. If this assumption is wrong, would you so enlighten me
.
Also, I would like to know what the name of such a time-domain filter would be. I'd like to do some research on it...
Thanks!
