window functions - What is the relation between windowing and hopping in audio DSP


While using short-time Fourier transform (STFT), it is common to use window function, usually tapered.




  • Will this not alter the original signal x[n] and the STFT may no more be the true STFT of x[n]?

  • Also, what is the concept for sliding the frames not by 100% of its width but a fraction of that? i.e, why should frames hop in small steps (for 75% overlap, frames hop by 25%). Is there a conceptual explanation with as little math as possible?

I have a question about matched filtering. Does the matched filter maximise the SNR at the moment of decision only? As far as I understand, ...
