Description: The rectangle function Pi(x) is a function that is 0 outside the interval [-1/2,1/2] and unity inside it. It is also called the gate function, pulse function, or window function, and is defined by Pi(x)={0 for |x|>1/2; 1/2 for |x|=1/2; 1 for |x|<1/2. (1) The left figure above plots the function as defined, while the right figure shows how it would appear if traced on an oscilloscope. The generalized function f(x)=hPi((x-c)/b) has height h, center c, and full-width b. As...
