Dear all,

I need to do a FFT on an array of 20k real values. Origin of the sampled
data is a sinus wave with light harmonics.
The goal is an frequency spectrum with the magnitudes of the first 50.
harmonics.

I addressed python like:

test_arr = src_data_dict[ channel ][0:19599]
target_data_dict[ channel ] = FFT.fft(test_arr,n=50,axis=-1)

This results in an array of complex values but with unexpected big
coefficients...
(much higher than the original signal magnitudes)
How do I get the absolute magnitudes of the harmonics, which are much
lower than the
resulting absolute values of the coefficients?

The result should be like this:

1.harmonic (50 Hz) 1,0
2.harmonic (100 Hz) 0,01
3.harmonic (100 Hz) 0,08
4.harmonic (100 Hz) 0,0035
etc.


at the moment I get a resulting array like:

CH1
(1729.80103418+0j)
(366.689810532+19.5196963754j)
(370.688444025+32.162562652j)
(372.122246668+46.9545880507j)

(470.908512117+433.929598454j)
(482.083855098+468.256188814j)

What does it mean to me? How do I get to the wanted frequenca spectrum???
...

btw The maximum magnitudes of the original data are app. 70 peak

Thanks in advance for your help!!!
