Correct functions:
import numpy as np
from scipy import fftpack as scipy_fftpack
from scipy import fft as scipy
# FFTPACK RFFT 2D
def fftpack_rfft2d(matrix):
fftRows = scipy_fftpack.fft(matrix, axis=1)
fftCols = scipy_fftpack.fft(fftRows, axis=0)
return fftCols
# FFTPACK IRFFT 2D
def fftpack_irfft2d(matrix):
ifftRows = scipy_fftpack.ifft(matrix, axis=1)
ifftCols = scipy_fftpack.ifft(ifftRows, axis=0)
return ifftCols.real
You calculated the 2D FFT in wrong way. Yes, the first FFT (by columns in your case) can be calculated using rfft(), but the second FFT calculation must be provided on the complex output of the first FFT (by columns), so the output of the rfft() must be converted into true complex spectrum. Moreover, this mean, that you must use fft() instead of rfft() for the second FFT by rows. Consiquently, it is more convenient to use fft() in both calculations.
Moreover, you have input data as a numpy 2D arrays, why do you use list comprehension? Use fftpack.fft() directly, this is much faster.
- If you already have only 2D arrays calculated by wrong functions and need multiply them: then, my opinion, to try reconstruct the input data from the wrong 2D FFT using the same ‘wrong’ way and then calculate correct 2D FFT
