[FieldTrip] Beamforming analysis in frequency band, concept problem

Dear Mikel,

I understand that you should do a mtmfft with a center frequency of interest (in your case cfg.foil = [11 11]) and then you do a frequency smoothing of 3 Hz (cfg.tapsmofrq = 3). Of course you need a time window big enough to allow such a smoothing. The CSD should represent a frequency window of 8 to 14 Hz then. Then you put the result of the mtmfft into the dics beamformer.

Best,

Stephan

> Hello, i'm having problems trying the beamformer analysis with a frequency band of interest. I would like to have for example an interval like [8 14] Hz. My concept problem is about the cfg.frequency and cfg.tapsmofrq  values. (it must be a escalar, but i want a frequency band).
