<p>Hi,<br>
You can always try variables number of cycles may be start with 3 and then go to 5.<br>

<div><br>
</div>
<div>I'm attempting to use wavelets to analyse some data collected with a neuromag system (sample rate of 500Hz, pre-trigger period is 200ms, post is 1.6 seconds) but am new to time frequency analysis. I'm interested in lower frequency bins (~4 to 20 Hz). The
config settings I've been playing with are as follows:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>cfg.method = 'wavelet';</div>
<div>cfg.channel = 'MEG';</div>
<div>cfg.keeptrials = 'yes';</div>
<div>cfg.foi = [4:1:20]</div>
<div>cfg.toi = [-.1:.01:1.5]</div>
<div>cfg.width = x </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Using a default width of 7, I'm getting large boundary effects leading to a period of ~300ms (400 - 700ms post trigger) of calculated data at 4Hz. I've played with the width and have found that a width of 1 gives only a small amount of boundary effect
at the extreme edges and shows a large increase in the frequencies I'm interested in at a time point which corresponds quite nicely with the ERF data also analysed. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Having read the Tallon-Baudry (1999) article, material from the tutorials and items from the mailing list, I understand that by using a wavelet width of 1 I've biased my results towards higher temporal vs. spectral resolution, but considering the low range
of frequencies I'm interest in, is this a problem? Does using a low width with my cfg.foi set as it is just lead to a large amount of redundant data? </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Advice on this subject would be greatly appreciated. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
