Function kzpdr.spikes
summarizes available periodogram pattern
records collected from the outputs of kzpdr
, gives expected wave
number. This number is used by kzpdr.tol
and kzpdr.valid
in searching feasible tolerance setting and validation of estimated wave
parameters.

The expected wave number is defined as the mode of all the spike counts.
If any of the sampling direction in the available directional periodogram records, say A, happens to be orthogonal to a wave direction B, then there will be no spike appear on related periodogram for the wave propagated in direction B. Related spike counts will be less than the expected wave number. The absence of spike(s) in one direction can be taken as the evidence for the existing of wave(s) in its orthogonal direction.
Usually, it is very rare to have a simpling direction orthogonal to a wave direction. But if we know an approximate wave direction, we can take more samplings around its orthogonal direction. Since KZ periodogram can separate wave spikes in very close frequencies, we may get more accurate estimation for this wave direction with this method. It is also possible to use this way to validate estimations get by other approaches.
