What is zero-crossing noise?

The Zero-Crossing Rate (ZCR) of an audio frame is the rate of sign-changes of the signal during the frame. In other words, it is the number of times the signal changes value, from positive to negative and vice versa, divided by the length of the frame.

What is the zero-crossing method?

The zero-crossing technique is one of the methods enabling to evaluate the delay time of propagating waves. The main idea of this technique is that using some threshold level the half period of the signal exceeding this level is determined (Fig. 1).

How do you calculate zero crossing rate?

The function subtracts the Level value from the signal and then finds the zero crossings. If you do not specify Level , the function uses the default value of 0 and returns the zero-crossing rate. Example: zerocrossrate(x,Level=1) returns the rate at which the input signal x crosses 1 .

What is a zero-crossing event?

rising — A zero crossing occurs when a signal rises to or through zero, or when a signal leaves zero and becomes positive. falling — A zero crossing occurs when a signal falls to or through zero, or when a signal leaves zero and becomes negative.
