    getting the peaks of a jagged (non smooth) sine wave.

    I am attempting to get the xy coordinates of the peaks of a very jagged sine wave i.e cant simply get local maxima as there are many false local maxima.

    I have attempted this almost successfully by a)flattening the data and only sampling above a threshold thus elimating most false maxima. b) if y value> surrounding y values its a peak.

    This does not narrow it down enough and i still end up with multiple peaks possibilties. I'd like a systematic approach where i enter any similar data and get peak coordinates?

    If you search the forum for matched filter, you'll find several examples.
