Matplotlib is a library in Python and it is numerical – mathematical extension for NumPy library. The Axes Class contains most of the figure elements: Axis, Tick, Line2D, Text, Polygon, etc., and sets the coordinate system. And the instances of Axes supports callbacks through a callbacks attribute.
matplotlib.axes.Axes.magnitude_spectrum() Function
The Axes.magnitude_spectrum() function in axes module of matplotlib library is used to plot the magnitude spectrum.
Syntax: Axes.magnitude_spectrum(self, x, Fs=None, Fc=None, window=None, pad_to=None, sides=None, *, data=None, **kwargs)
Parameters: This method accept the following parameters that are described below:
- x: This parameter is a sequence of data.
- Fs : This parameter is a scalar. Its default value is 2.
- window: This parameter take a data segment as an argument and return the windowed version of the segment. Its default value is window_hanning()
- sides: This parameter specifies which sides of the spectrum to return. This can have following values : ‘default’, ‘onesided’ and ‘twosided’.
- pad_to : This parameter contains the integer value to which the data segment is padded.
- Fc: This parameter is also contains the integer value to offsets the x extents of the plot to reflect the frequency range. Its default value is 0
Returns: This returns the following:
- spectrum :This returns the angle spectrum in radians.
- freqs :This returns the frequencies corresponding to the elements in spectrum.
- line : This returns the line created by this function.
The resultant is (spectrum, freqs, line)
Below examples illustrate the matplotlib.axes.Axes.magnitude_spectrum() function in matplotlib.axes:
Example 1:
| # Implementation of matplotlib function importmatplotlib.pyplot as plt importnumpy as np np.random.seed(10**5)   dt =0.0001Fs =1/dt neveropen =np.array([22.00, 61.90, 7.80,                   24.40, 110.25, 20.05,                   15.00, 22.80, 34.90,                   57.30])  nse =np.random.randn(len(neveropen)) r =np.exp(-neveropen /0.05)   s =0.5*np.sin(1.5*np.pi *neveropen) +nse   # plot magnitude_spectrum fig, ax =plt.subplots() ax.magnitude_spectrum(s, Fs =Fs,                        color ="green")  ax.set_title('matplotlib.axes.Axes.magnitude_spectrum()\ Example')  plt.show()  | 
Output:
Example 2:
| # Implementation of matplotlib function importmatplotlib.pyplot as plt importnumpy as np np.random.seed(0)   dt =0.01Fs =1/dt t =np.arange(0, 10, dt) res =np.random.randn(len(t)) r =np.exp(-t /0.05)   cres =np.convolve(res, r)*dt cres =cres[:len(t)] s =0.5*np.sin(1.5*np.pi *t) +cres   # plot simple spectrum fig, (ax1, ax2) =plt.subplots(2, 1) ax1.plot(t, s, color ="green")   # plot magnitude_spectrum ax2.magnitude_spectrum(s, Fs =Fs,                         color ="green")   ax1.set_title('matplotlib.axes.Axes.magnitude_spectrum()\ Example')  plt.show()  | 
Output:
