[FieldTrip] High-pass filter - 0.1

[Caspar, Emilie]

Thank you for your answer. The complete error message I have is this one, but I'm not able to decrypt it.

Error using filter_with_correction (line 44)
Calculated filter coefficients have poles on or outside the unit circle and will not be stable. Try a higher cutoff
frequency or a different type/order of filter.

Error in filter_with_correction (line 44)
  error('Calculated filter coefficients have poles on or outside the unit circle and will not be stable. Try a
  higher cutoff frequency or a different type/order of filter.');

Error in ft_preproc_bandpassfilter (line 148)
  filt = filter_with_correction(B,A,dat,dir);

Error in preproc (line 299)
if strcmp(cfg.bpfilter, 'yes'),     dat = ft_preproc_bandpassfilter(dat, fsample, cfg.bpfreq, cfg.bpfiltord,
cfg.bpfilttype, cfg.bpfiltdir, cfg.bpinstabilityfix); end

Error in ft_preprocessing (line 559)
      [cutdat{i}, label, time{i}, cfg] = preproc(dat, hdr.label(rawindx), tim, cfg, begpadding, endpadding);

Error in preprocessing_Libet (line 70)
    allData_prepross      = ft_preprocessing(cfg);

It only occurs when I ask for a bpfilterrange from .1 to 30, or any values lower than .9.

Thanks!

Emilie

Dear Emilie,

The error message you include only specifies *where* in the code the
error happened, not *what* the actual error was. Could you include the
actual error as well? Perhaps someone can then help you fix it. (In
general there is no fixed lower limit on filter low-/highpass
frequency, although a practical limit could depend on your data.)

Best,
Eelke

Dear Fieldtrip members,

I would like to apply to my data a bandpass filter from 0.016 (or at least
0.1) to 30 Hz

bpfilterRange = [.1 30];

However, it seems that Fieltrip doesn't accept small high-pass filter
values. I have the following mistake :


Error in preproc (line 299)
if strcmp(cfg.bpfilter, 'yes'),     dat = ft_preproc_bandpassfilter(dat,
fsample, cfg.bpfreq, cfg.bpfiltord,
cfg.bpfilttype, cfg.bpfiltdir, cfg.bpinstabilityfix); end

Error in ft_preprocessing (line 559)
     [cutdat{i}, label, time{i}, cfg] = preproc(dat, hdr.label(rawindx),
tim, cfg, begpadding, endpadding);

Error in preprocessing_Libet (line 70)
   allData_prepross      = ft_preprocessing(cfg);

I also tried with 0.2, 0.5, and the minimum acceptable I found was 0.9,
which is quite high.

I wonder if the problem comes from my data (but I had no problems on others
programs) or if there is a way to apply 0.1 high-pass filter on Fieldtrip?

Thank in advance,

Emilie
