Overview

This step involves separating the raw velocities into:

  • low-frequency component comprising of the background large-scale flow
  • high-frequency component comprising of the turbulence and surface wave signals.

These two components may also include unwanted contributions from the measurement platforms, such as wakes and vibrations associated with the frame (high-frequency). This step enables determining mean flow past the sensor and surface wave statistics, which are necessary for later choosing the appropriate inertial subrange model for spectral fitting.
