Homework Statement


Is there a good way to do a fit. The fft looks simple:

I am trying to fit data from my experiment to the very nonlinear nested sine function given as equation 3 here:

Homework Equations


see above


The Attempt at a Solution


I am using matlab, the model function is crazy! Though the data looks good in Fourier space.

Try gnuplot, all in all it does a good fit.
it is just few minutes to do it. If you need help supply your data with the model function, i can try.
good luck
