Abstract
It is shown that in some cases the noise in NMR spectra can be reduced to a large degree by cutting out the noise in FID. The advantage over the commonly used exponential multiplication is that in this case the lines in spectra are not broadened. The implementations of the proposed algorithm to FID’s, subjected to Reference Deconvolution, shows an increase of S/N ratio by 180%.
Main Application
An example of such FID and corresponding spectrum without and with noise reduction by noise cutting (nornoc) is presented on next figures:
