BlackmanOptimal Routine
Summary
Optimal Blackman window.

Unit
SignalUtils

Declaration
Function BlackmanOptimal(Src: TVec; Index: integer = 0; Len: integer = -1): TVec;

Description
Applies optimal Blackman window to Src. Window functions are applied to the signal prior to conversion to frequency domain with the FFT algorithm, to reduce the spectral leakage. Their side-effect is a lower frequency resolution. The following function defines the Blackman window:
alpha + 1 2*Pi*n alpha 4*Pi*n w[n] = ---------- - 0.5*cos -------- - ------ * cos(-------) 2 n - 1 2 n - 1 sin(Pi/(n-1)) alpha = - (---------------)^2 sin(2*Pi/(n-1))
