Peak Characterizations, Height

Equals the trace’s distance from the baseline (Baselined) or Y value (Non-Baselined) at the estimated X coordinate at the peak maximum. This is calculated using the Forward Gregory-Newton Interpolation Formula:

Take a region of a spectrum around the peak of interest at the X coordinates x0,x1,x2,x3,x4 with Y values y0,y1,y2,y3,y4, where x0 is the point just before the actual peak coordinate. Now define the first difference as:



and higher order differences as:

If the X coordinates are evenly-spaced with interval h, then the point of interest is at:

x = x0 + rh

and the interpolated Y value is given by:
