Cross spectral density (CSD)¶
Plot the cross spectral density (CSD) of two signals using csd.

import numpy as np
fig, (ax1, ax2) = plt.subplots(2, 1, layout='constrained')
dt = 0.01
t = np.arange(0, 30, dt)
# Fixing random state for reproducibility
np.random.seed(19680801)
nse1 = np.random.randn(len(t)) # white noise 1
nse2 = np.random.randn(len(t)) # white noise 2
r = np.exp(-t / 0.05)
cnse1 = np.convolve(nse1, r, mode='same') * dt # colored noise 1
cnse2 = np.convolve(nse2, r, mode='same') * dt # colored noise 2
# two signals with a coherent part and a random part
s1 = 0.01 * np.sin(2 * np.pi * 10 * t) + cnse1
s2 = 0.01 * np.sin(2 * np.pi * 10 * t) + cnse2
