Cut off input multi-channel signal according to a new dynamic range

Description

cut_off_signal cuts off the input multi-channel accelerometer data according to a new dynamic range, then adds gausian noise to the cut-off samples.

Usage

cut_off_signal(df, range = NULL, noise_std = 0.03)

Arguments

df

dataframe. Input multi-channel accelerometer data.

range

numerical vector. The new dynamic ranges to cut off the signal. Should be a 2-element numerical vector. c(low, high), where low is the negative max value the device can reach and high is the positive max value the device can reach. Default is NULL, meaning the function will do nothing but return the input data.

noise_std

number. The standard deviation of the added gaussian noise.

Details

This function simulates the behavior that a low dynamic range device is trying to record high intensity movement, where recorded accelerometer signal will be cut off at the dynamic range, but the true movement should have higher acceleration values than the dynamic range. This function also adds gaussian noise to the cut off samples to better simulate the real world situation.

Value

dataframe. The multi-channel accelerometer data with the new dynamic range as specified in range.

How is it used in MIMS-unit algorithm?

This function is a utility function that is used to simulate the behaviors of low dynamic range devices during algorithm validation.

Examples

  # Use sample data for testing
  df = sample_raw_accel_data

  # Show df
  illustrate_signal(df, range=c(-8, 8))

  # cut off the signal to c(-2, 2)
  new_df = cut_off_signal(df, range=c(-2, 2), noise_std=0.03)

  # Show new df
  illustrate_signal(new_df, range=c(-2, 2))
