Code usage

/* Include library */
#include "moving-average.h"

/* Filter objects */
movingAverage_t avg_filter;
movingAverage_t avg_filter_2;

void main()
{
   /* Initialization of filters */
   moving_average_create(&avg_filter, 10, 100);   /* filter size 10, sample time 100ms */
   moving_average_create(&avg_filter_2, 30, 150); /* filter size 30, sample time 150ms */

   /* wait for 1 maximum sample time */
   delay(150);

   while(1)
   {
      signal = signal_source();  /* signal source function may ADC, Capture count, sensor data*/

      /* Filter process
      * 
      * call this function maximum passible short time
      */
      moving_average_filter(&avg_filter, signal);
      moving_average_filter(&avg_filter_2, signal);

      process_or_print = avg_filter.filtered;
      process_or_print = avg_filter_2.filtered;
   }
}

Filter images

• channel 0 - signal + noise (+/- 20)
• channel 1 - filter size 10, sample time 100ms
• channel 2 - filter size 30, sample time 100ms
• channel 3 - filter size 50, sample time 100ms
