An improvement to the linear interpolation technique can be made by multiplying the linear interpolator by
, which, in the time-space domain, corresponds to
moving the center of the sinc2 function to T/2, so that
the original values between T/2 and T
are stronger than the wraparound between -T/2 and .
The linear plus cork-screw operator is
| (4) |
In Figure 3, we show the implement of this operator. This result is better
than Figure 1 and Figure 2,
i.e. the artifacts are still obvious for the top and bottom impulse responses,
because the amplitude of the sinc2 function varies with time and space.
Only the original value at the center of the section
is not affected by the artifact because for
, the wraparound
is multiplied by a zero value of the sinc2 function.
