The RR interval series is non-stationary and unevenly
spaced in time. For estimating its power spectral density (PSD) using
traditional techniques like FFT, require resampling at uniform
intervals. The researchers have used different interpolation
techniques as resampling methods. All these resampling methods
introduce the low pass filtering effect in the power spectrum. The
lomb transform is a means of obtaining PSD estimates directly from
irregularly sampled RR interval series, thus avoiding resampling. In
this work, the superiority of Lomb transform method has been
established over FFT based approach, after applying linear and
cubicspline interpolation as resampling methods, in terms of
reproduction of exact frequency locations as well as the relative
magnitudes of each spectral component
