File:Processing losses for 3 window functions.gif
Summary
Comparison of three window functions in terms of their effects on equal-strength sinusoids with additive noise. The noise "floor" is smoothed by averaging many DFTs to reveal the substantial difference in levels, caused by the different window functions. In each case, the sinusoid on the left suffers no scalloping and the one on the right exhibits worst-case scalloping. The rectangular window produces the most scalloping but lowest noise-floor. The Hann window has a higher noise floor but much less potential scalloping, which results in the lowest "worst case processing loss" of these 3 functions.
