0. INTRODUCTION
In this publication, an explicit representation of formulas for periodic cubic spline interpolation by curves in R² and R³ is given for the classical case where data points and nodal points coincide. The solution is formed using Bézier points and basic splines. Furthermore, interpolation with equidistant parameters is discussed. Of course, the achieved results can be used for numerical calculation.
In the following, the result for interpolation using basic splines will be formulated a little more exactly. Let s be a (xn − x0)-periodic cubic B-spline curve, which interpolates in given data points x0, x1, …, xn−1, xn = x0 + p. Then the interpolating periodic cubic spline s in [t0; tn] can be expressed as s = sum_{l=-2}^{n} d_l N_{l,3}(t) with the control points dl and the functions N_{l,3}(t) of de Boor, which are defined by recursion.
Similar formulas can be used when expressing this with Bézier points. Explicit expressions can be obtained from the formulas we have just described. As dr,l,n and vn, represented by means of matrix products, take on considerable values with increasing n, the above described formulas can be applied only until n ≈ 500 for numerical purposes. This can be remedied, however, by skillfully canceling dr,l,n / vn. By inserting known iterations, the calculation time can be reduced, which, for n = 1000, reduces the time from about 4 s to about 0.4 s.
If the parameters are equidistant, the series of values dr,l,n / vn (r = 0, 1, 2, ..., n − 1) do not differ for different l and fixed n. Moreover, they do not depend on Δi, but are thus fixed numbers. This means if the parameters are equidistant and the number n is defined from the beginning, the same fixed series of numbers dr,l,n / vn (r = 0, 1, 2, ..., n − 1) can always be used, which will shorten the calculating time enormously.
