  Electroencephalogram (EEG) is a test used to detect abnormalities related to electrical activity of the brain. In this work different finite impulse response filter (FIR) windows methods were used to extract EEG signal to its basic components (Delta wave, Theta wave, Alpha wave and Beta wave). The comparison between these windowing methods were done by computing the Fourier transform, power spectrum, SNR, the main-lobe, and the side-lobe. The results show the best main-lobe is for rectangular window, the best side-lobe is for Kaiser β (12) and the best SNR is for Hanning. Also the best window according to main-lobe, side-lobe and SNR is Kaiser β (12)... Read More»
