Phasing two- and three-dimensional NMR spectra by use of the Hilbert transform can save computer time and space

Abstract Use of the Hilbert transformation of phasing reduces disk space requirements and leads to considerably faster processing rates for two-dimensional and particularly three-dimensional NMR spectra. The reduction in storage space is a consequence of the need to store only the real part of the spectrum. The decreased processing time results primarily from the reduction in the number of disk input/output steps. Striking time savings have been documented with software operating on several different computers.
