How to plot the bandwidth that contains 99% power of a signal?

I would like to estimates the width of the frequency band that contains 99% of the power of my signal (sound waveform), the upper and lower bounds of the band, and the power in the band. I also would like to plot the bandwidth on the power spectrum…

SciPy periodogram for finite-length signal

I input a finite-length signal to the periodogram function and get the power spectrum density. However, since the signal has a finite length, the power spectrum density I get has a sinc-like lobes. Is there any implantation in SciPy, which can be…

Real-time spectrum analyzer with API

I'm looking for a C or C++ API that will give me real-time spectrum analysis of a waveform on Windows. I'm not entirely sure how large a sample window it should need to determine frequency content, but the smaller the better. For example, if it can…
