ifftshift

Arguments

x, y

vectors, matrices or hypermatrices of same sizes and types.

along

1 | "r" | 2 | "c" | 0<along<=ndims(x): dimension along which halves are switched.

Description

ifftshift(x) swaps the left and right halves of the vector x.

For matrices, ifftshift(x) swaps the first quadrant with the third, and the second quadrant with the fourth.

If x is a multidimensional array, ifftshift(x) swaps "half-spaces" of x along each dimension, for all of them.

y = ifftshift(x,n) makes the swap only along the nth dimension.

ifftshift() is designed in such a way that whatever is x with even or/and odd sizes, ifftshift(fftshift(x)) and fftshift(ifftshift(x)) are always equal to x.

Examples

Example #1:

When the size of a vector (or of a dimension>1) is even, fftshift() and ifftshift() are equivalent. It is no longer the case when a size is odd:

even = [1 2 3 4 5 6];
odd  = [1 2 3 4 5 6 7];
[fftshift(even) ; ifftshift(even)]
[fftshift(odd)  ; ifftshift(odd)]

// Both are always reciprocal:
ifftshift(fftshift(odd))
fftshift(ifftshift(odd))

--> even = [1 2 3 4 5 6];
--> odd  = [1 2 3 4 5 6 7];
--> [fftshift(even) ; ifftshift(even)]
 ans  =
   4.   5.   6.   1.   2.   3.
   4.   5.   6.   1.   2.   3.

--> [fftshift(odd)  ; ifftshift(odd)]
 ans  =
   5.   6.   7.   1.   2.   3.   4.
   4.   5.   6.   7.   1.   2.   3.

--> // Both are always reciprocal:
--> ifftshift(fftshift(odd))
 ans  =
   1.   2.   3.   4.   5.   6.   7.

--> fftshift(ifftshift(odd))
 ans  =
   1.   2.   3.   4.   5.   6.   7.

Example #2:

// Make a signal
t = 0:0.1:1000;
x = 3*sin(t) + 8*sin(3*t) + 0.5*sin(5*t) + 3*rand(t);
// Compute the fft
y = fft(x, -1);
// Invert the result
shift = fftshift(y);
// Invert the inverted result
invShift = ifftshift(shift);
// Check that we recreated the original result
and(y == invShift)

Example #3:

// Make a 2D image
t = 0:0.1:30;
x = 3*sin(t')*cos(2*t) + 8*sin(3*t')*sin(5*t) + ..
  0.5*sin(5*t')*sin(5*t) + 3*rand(t')*rand(t);
// Compute the fft
y = fft(x,-1);

// Invert the result
shift = fftshift(y);
// Invert the inverted result
invShift = ifftshift(shift);
// Check that we recreated the original result
and(y == invShift)
