What is the purpose of a notch filter?

Notch filters are used to remove a single frequency or a narrow band of frequencies. In audio systems, a notch filter can be used to remove interfering frequencies such as powerline hum. Notch filters can also be used to remove a specific interfering frequency in radio receivers and software-defined radio.

What is notch filter in EEG?

A notch filter is typically an aggressive filter that strongly attenuates the power over a narrow region of the spectrum. For example, a notch filter at 60 Hz / 50 Hz is used to filter out power line noise with minimal disruption to the rest of the signal.

How to implement notch filter in matlab?

Design Notch Filter

Design a direct-form I notching filter that has a filter order of 6, center frequency of 0.5, quality factor of 10, and a passband ripple of 1 dB. Create a notch filter design specification object using the fdesign. notch function and specify these design parameters. notchSpecs = fdesign.

How to use MNE in Python?

If you only need 2D plotting capabilities with MNE-Python (i.e., most EEG/ERP or other sensor-level analyses), you can install all you need by running pip install mne in a terminal window (on Windows, use the “Anaconda Prompt” from the Start menu, or the “CMD.exe prompt” from within the Anaconda Navigator GUI).
