ImageGear .NET v25.1 - Updated
LowPassFilter Method




ImageGear.Processing.Advanced Assembly > ImageGear.FreqIP Namespace > ImGearFrequencyProcessing Class : LowPassFilter Method
ImageGear.Core.ImGearRasterPage class object to be processed.
Brand of the filter to use. Constants are listed in ImGearFreqIPFilterBrands enumeration.
Cutoff frequency for the low-pass filter.
Filter order to use, applicable to all except Ideal filter.
A factor which determines the pass-band ripple for Chebyshev filters, with value between [0, 1].
Filters the input image using a low-pass filter, with the specified parameters.

Parameters

page
ImageGear.Core.ImGearRasterPage class object to be processed.
filterBrand
Brand of the filter to use. Constants are listed in ImGearFreqIPFilterBrands enumeration.
cutoffFrequency
Cutoff frequency for the low-pass filter.
filterOrder
Filter order to use, applicable to all except Ideal filter.
rippleFactor
A factor which determines the pass-band ripple for Chebyshev filters, with value between [0, 1].
Remarks
This method filters the input image using a low-pass filter, with the specified parameters.

Parameter filterBrand specifies the brand of filter to use, with available brands being Ideal, Butterworth, Gaussian, Chebyshev I, and Chebyshev II.

Parameter cutoffFrequency specifies the cutoff frequency for the low-pass filter. This parameter should have value within the range of [0, 1], where 0 is DC and 1 is the Nyquist frequency.

Before using this method, like other frequency processing methods, InitializeFFTW method must be called first to initialize the support for FFTW.

Can be applied only to 8bit grayscale images with one channel.

ImGearFrequencyProcessingVerifier.CanApplyLowPassFilter method can be called to check whether the operation can be performed or not.
