DATA & FILE OVERVIEW
--------------------

This dataset contains:
- Time-domain experimental waveform data used for signal analysis
- Frequency-domain data derived from the measured waveforms
- Data files used to generate figures presented in the associated journal publication

Relationship between files, if important for context:
Frequency-domain data were obtained by processing the corresponding time-domain
waveform measurements for spectral analysis and visualisation.

Additional related data collected that was not included in the current data package:
Raw intermediate data not required for reproduction of published figures were excluded.

If data was derived from another source, list source:
Not applicable

If there are there multiple versions of the dataset, list the file updated,
when and why update was made:
This is the first version of the dataset.

METHODOLOGICAL INFORMATION
--------------------------

Description of methods used for collection/generation of data:
The data were collected through laboratory-based experimental testing using
electronic measurement equipment. The experimental setup and procedures are
described in detail in the associated publication.

Methods for processing the data:
Time-domain signals were processed using standard signal analysis techniques
to generate frequency-domain representations for comparison and evaluation.

Software- or Instrument-specific information needed to interpret the data,
including software and hardware version numbers:
Data analysis was performed using standard scientific data processing software.

Standards and calibration information, if appropriate:
Measurement instruments were calibrated according to standard laboratory
calibration procedures prior to data acquisition.

Environmental/experimental conditions:
Experiments were conducted under controlled laboratory conditions.

Describe any quality-assurance procedures performed on the data:
The data were checked for consistency, completeness, and correctness before
analysis and generation of publication figures.
