This shows the result of a zero-padded FFT, no windowing. The peak is the same height, but the noise is marginally reduced. | This shows the result of a zero-padded FFT, no windowing. The peak is the same height, but the noise is marginally reduced. | ||

This shows the result of windowed-overlapped FFT (Hamming window), no zero padding. The peak goes up but it is sitting on a plateau of higher noise. If you just estimate the noise globally, then the S/N seems higher, but if you use an estimate of the local noise in the vicinity of the peak, the S/N is the same. | This shows the result of windowed-overlapped FFT (Hamming window), no zero padding.
